Special Features

Our program develops leaders and innovators in geriatrics. The program prepares trainees for varied careers with customized mentorship for each unique fellow. Graduates pursue careers in a wide spectrum of clinical and academic paths, with all impacting the field in unique ways. We utilize our academic safety-net/county hospital, academic medical center, and V.A. Puget Sound Healthcare as well as community sites and home visits. In addition to other salary and benefits, trainees receive an allowance in the sum of $12,000, intended to offset the cost of living in Seattle.
