Maps & Directions

Most medical problems can be diagnosed and treated in your primary care physician’s office. When a medical problem cannot be taken care of in the physician’s office and hospitalization is required, your primary care physician has partnered with Licking Memorial Hospitalists to provide care for you in the Hospital. This partnership was formed to ensure that our patients, especially those with particularly difficult or complex diagnoses, receive the best care possible.

As hospitalists we focus on and coordinate inpatient hospital care from the time a patient is admitted until the patient is discharged. Hospitalists are internal medicine specialists who further specialize in caring for acutely ill, hospitalized patients.

While in the Hospital, we can answer the patient’s questions quickly since we are in the Hospital 24 hours-per-day and can spend more time talking with you and your family. We can also respond to your needs quickly, and our offices are in the Hospital. We have an in-depth knowledge of the hospital system since we are dedicated to inpatient care. We work very closely in consultation with your primary care physician and other specialists, if needed, to oversee the entire hospital stay and provide personal attention. We stay in communication with your primary care physician and provide information to the physician of any changes in condition, medications or treatment during your hospital stay.
