Patient Care

Exceptional, Comprehensive Care for Seniors

Patient service has long been a hallmark of the Duke Division of Geriatrics, and programs continue to expand to meet the increasing needs of our aging population.

The Duke Geriatrics team works closely with our patients' primary care physicians to provide and coordinate exceptional, comprehensive care for seniors suffering from a wide variety of health and wellness issues.

We offer inpatient consult services throughout Duke Hospital for adults over the age of 65 years.

Our cross-disciplinary approach to patient care gives our geriatric patients access to all that Duke has to offer — from experienced specialists in every medical specialty to the most advanced medical technology available to a number of active family support programs.
