Hospital medicine is a relatively new field in healthcare. First defined in the mid-1990s, hospital medicine is becoming an increasingly popular approach to care for patients in the hospital. Physicians who specialize in this field are called hospitalists; the majority of hospitalists are trained in internal medicine. Often, hospitalists first see patients in the Emergency Department when it has been determined that the patient needs to be admitted to the hospital. The hospitalists will follow the patient’s general medical care until they are discharged. They are responsible for ordering tests, interpreting test results, prescribing medications, and organizing therapy or specialized medical care.
Here are just a few of the many positive things our patients have to say about their the care they received at Cary Medical Center.

This hospital was exactly what a hospital should be. The took such good care of my grandmother and the display of humanity and compassion was genuine. I am forever grateful.
I had my son at Cary and I couldn’t imagine being treated better anywhere. The staff were attentive, empathetic, and went above and beyond for my comfort. I wouldn’t want to give birth anywhere else.
