Medicine faculty are actively engaged in clinical and/or basic
research as well as patient care. However, at the University
of South Alabama, significant emphasis has been placed on excellence
in clinical teaching. Medical education has and will continue
to be our first priority. To that end, we have assembled a faculty
with skills for and a sound commitment to teaching, and carefully
balanced the service and educational interests of our department.
The atmosphere is mutually supportive in a program focused on
general internal medicine. |
