“Being a geriatrician and caring for older adults is challenging but very rewarding. We have a unique opportunity to help seniors as well as during difficult times in their lives such as an acute hospitalization. I enjoy teaching and training the next generation of geriatricians to understand the impact of the aging process and how we can provide better, patient-centered care for our patients.”
