About Us Hospital Medicine

Welcome to the UK College of Medicine Division of Hospital Medicine. Founded in January 2014 under the leadership of Mark V. Williams, MD, MHM, the division includes more than 80 physicians and more than 20 advanced practice providers, making it one of the largest divisions in the department of internal medicine. We are committed to achieving excellence in clinical care, quality and safety, medical education and research, and marching toward becoming a national leader in hospital medicine. 

We provide patient care at UK Albert B. Chandler Hospital, UK Good Samaritan Hospital, and the Markey Cancer Center, along with hospital medicine consultations. The division is a leader in graduate medical education and medical student education, with our own hospitalists serving as internal medicine residency program directors. The recently developed UK Hospital Medicine Track demonstrates our commitment to providing focused training in the specialty of hospital medicine for internal medicine residents. Closely collaborating with the UK Center for Health Services Research, the division is also building a robust research program that aims to identify best practices in patient-centered health care.
