Geriatric Medicine Clinics are offered by physicians within the division of Geriatric Medicine, at the University of South Florida College of Medicine. Physicians in training and/or medical students may be present during part of the clinic assessment process. Other health professionals (SW, PT, OT, ARNP) may participate as needed. The program focuses on comprehensive care for older adults with multiple co-morbid medical problems, multiple medications, and other difficulties often found in older frail patients.

During the clinic the Physician will conduct a comprehensive history, and physical examination, including a functional and psycho-social review. This may include obtaining additional information from other medical assessments and family members if available. A typical clinic assessment will take between 40 minutes to 1 hour and will often require additional assessments including laboratory and radiographic tests.
