Geriatricians
Rebecca Elon, MD
"Perhaps the most satisfying aspect of geriatrics for me is the opportunity to meet the people who are the history of our nation."
Jerome Epplin, MD
"Caring for older people is something I really enjoy," he says. "In fact, the more I do it, the more I enjoy it."
Holly Stanley, MD
"I love all the intricate puzzle solving and the advocacy work in geriatrics."
Geriatrics Psychiatry
Gary Kennedy, MD
"Often, when you work with older people you stumble into a moment of drama when you're listening to them tell a story. It's fine to read history in books, but to talk with someone who's lived it is precious. That's one of the joys of geriatric practice."
Nursing
Phyllis Atkinson, GNP
"[I] realized that I wanted to know how older people differ from younger people and that I wanted to be an advocate for them."
Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN
"I have the same passion today that I had when I started. I can't imagine anything I'd rather do than care for older patients and teach others to care for older patients."
Social Work
Irene Moore, MSSW, LISW
“Geriatrics is a wide open field. There’s plenty of room to make your mark in geriatric social work, no matter what venue you choose."
