The Department of Internal Medicine
The Department of Internal Medicine at Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine is a "clinical department without walls." Although its administrative/educational offices are located at the Miami Valley Hospital (MVH) Weber Center for Health Education, the department is closely affiliated not only with MVH, but also with Good Samaritan Hospital, the Dayton Veterans Affairs Medical Center and the Wright-Patterson Medical Center. In addition, both Kettering Medical Center and The Children's Medical Center are aligned with the department through the medical school and postgraduate programs. The Dayton VA Medical Center’s Sections of Medicine, Primary Care, and Geriatrics participate fully in the training program of Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine.
