University of Arizona College of Medicine - Tucson

**College of Medicine – Tucson** We are transforming academic medicine through innovative undergraduate medical education and post-graduate training programs; strategic, interdisciplinary trans-institutional research; collaborative health care delivery; and a strong, diverse and engaged faculty. **Patient Care** Patient care has been an integral part of the College of Medicine – Tucson since its founding more than 55 years ago. Today, we work with clinical partners, including Banner Health and the Southern Arizona VA Health Care System, that operate hospitals and clinics throughout Arizona. These partnerships allow for a seamless integration of clinical faculty who work in area hospitals and clinics. In addition to teaching medical students, training residents and fellows, and caring for patients, many clinical faculty members — including some of the best minds in medicine — have subspecialty expertise and conduct groundbreaking research that is cited in top medical publications and translated into real-world therapies that improve lives.
