Welcome to the Department of Medicine

As a department, we continue to push the boundaries of innovation in delivering exceptional, patient-centered care. Our commitment to education remains a cornerstone of our mission. We are proud to train the next generation of physicians through our core Internal Medicine Residency program, ten sub-specialty residency programs, and several nationally recognized Advanced Fellowship programs. 

Research within the department continues to thrive, driving discovery and innovation across the Cumming School of Medicine research institutes. Our faculty continue to provide influential leadership within the University of Calgary, Alberta Health Services (AHS), and through national and international collaborations, advancing knowledge and improving health outcomes.

We remain dedicated in our mission to equitably advance health and wellness by cultivating a community of diverse physicians who lead through care delivery, discovery, innovation, education, and knowledge translation. Guided by our Vice Chair for Indigenous Health, we continue to enhance care for Indigenous patients while building respectful and collaborative partnerships with communities. Our Office of Physician Wellness and EDIA champions a supportive, inclusive, and respectful work environment, while our Office of Education empowers our members to achieve excellence as teachers, educators and mentors. The department also continues to lead in quality improvement and patient safety and has expanded our focus to include planetary health and sustainability—reflecting our commitment to a healthier future for all.

Our 2024-25 Annual Report will be available soon.
