About Us

The Division of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, part of the Weill Department of Medicine, offers an array of clinical, educational, and research programs — promoting excellence in geriatrics and palliative medicine within our institution and community. Designated a National Center of Excellence by the John A. Hartford Foundation, our division's outstanding health practitioners and faculty are committed to the highest quality of clinical care. 

Our interdisciplinary team embraces a comprehensive approach to aging and palliative care, reflected by our diverse areas of research and advocacy, including symptom management, patient-physician communication, ageism and elder abuse, and end-of-life care. 

When you make a gift to the Division, you'll join us in our mission to improving the quality of life for older adults and adults of all ages with serious illness through the integration of high quality clinical care, teaching geriatric and palliative medicine to clinical trainees, and advancing knowledge through scientific research.
