Johns Hopkins Bayview
Division of General Internal Medicine
In the care of patients, we strive for clinical excellence; we value the clinician-patient relationship and we are person-centered in all we do.
We are committed to being especially creative while having great impact in advancing medical education. Our experience and expertise with the science of learning, teaching skills, curriculum development, and educational research uniquely position our Division to lead the way forward in medical education.

As a former GIM fellow who trained in this division, I am honored to lead our group – building upon our traditional strengths and growing in exciting directions. Our faculty are respected and recognized widely for accomplishments in many areas, we are generalists after all, and we are fully engaged in the tripartite academic missions at Hopkins – patient care, education, and research. In all that we do, we adhere to the values expressed in our core divisional principles (please click on the 'About' tab above to see them). This clarity about who we are and what we hope to achieve allows us to move forward with intentional purpose. Thank you for visiting this online representation of our dynamic Division. If you’re interested in learning more details about any of our programs, please reach out (swright@jhmi.edu).
Using specific criteria and deliberate processes, each month we select up to four published articles that we think are essential reading for those wanting to keep up with the best new ideas and scholarship in health professions education.
Having clarity about our principles helps us to recruit amazing people to join our team. The majority of us have chosen to spend our entire careers working only in this division. While the opportunities before us are ever changing, our supportive work environment enables all to flourish.
Ever since I came to Bayview for my residency, I’ve found the GIM Division to live up to a rich tradition of innovation and commitment to excellence and a culture of openness, determination, respect, generosity, and kindness. Truly every individual in the division has had a positive influence on me professionally and personally.
