Our General Internal Medicine and Hospital Medicine teams provide specialist care for patients at both Mount Sinai Hospital and Hennick Bridgepoint Hospital. 

Around 40 per cent of patients admitted to our hospital are seen by these two closely-aligned teams.

Internal medicine physicians specialize in complex multi-system diseases–both in an acute hospital setting and in ambulatory care clinics. Internal medicine specialist usually complete a minimum of four years of residency training after medical school is completed.

Hospital medicine physicians specialize in hospital medicine. They are typically trained in family medicine with additional training in the care of hospitalized patients. 

Our hospital medicine division is one of the largest fully academic hospital medicine divisions in Canada.  Our hospitalists care for more than 440 patients across Mount Sinai Hospital and Hennick Bridgepoint each day.

Together, these two teams provide day-to-day comprehensive medical care to hospitalized patients. They may also continue to provide care after patients leave the hospital.

We are fully affiliated with the University of Toronto and our clinicians participate in ground-breaking research. This research improves patient care, innovates treatments across specialties and informs world-class training for our learners.
