The Department of Medicine at Alpert Medical School is comprised of eleven distinct Divisions. These Divisions, working in conjunction with the community doctors who comprise our Primary Care offerings, provide patients with an outstanding level of care both within the Brown affiliated hospitals and throughout several community-based clinical locations. In addition to patient services, several of our Divisions offer exceptional programs for Residents and Fellows within their designated areas of expertise.
