Buffalo General Medical Center - Buffalo, New York 14203

Our Hospitalist Service

Buffalo Medical Group works with area hospitals to offer our patients in need of hospitalization an innovative continuum of care that extends beyond the doctor’s office. Our team of highly trained hospital-based doctors and advanced practice providers, also known as “hospitalists,” are available to care for you, day or night, during your hospital stay.

Amenities to Make Your Hospital Stay Easier:

  • An on-site team of specialists, specifically trained in hospital-based medical care, available 24/7 to handle both your routine issues, as well as any needs that may arise
  • Careful review of your medical records, including both those on file at the hospital, as well as those of the doctors you have seen outside of the hospital
  • Close communication between you, your family and your PCP from your admission through discharge
  • Efforts to make sure that the medications you receive while hospitalized are correct and “reconciled” with those you take at home, and properly matching your discharge medications with your home medication list
  • Coordination between your care management team, your medical team, and you and your family to ensure your transition to your next level of care—whether home or rehabilitative care—goes smoothly
