  • Improving patient outcomes and reducing hospital readmissions
  • Exploring telemedicine options and how to best utilize to overcome some of the challenges Veterans face, including accessing the internet or having their own devices
  • Conducting transformative research that will improve quality of life for our Veterans

We are also focused on growth and continue to expand our clinical programs and reach out to Veterans who need care. We are ranked #4 in the country (out of 171 VAs) in inpatient Veteran satisfaction nationwide.

Helping Hands: Ibtissam Gad Is Rethinking How Clinicians Learn to Feel Disease

For most physicians, learning to recognize swollen joints begins in the classroom. Students study anatomy, learn examination techniques, observe experienced clinicians, and gradually gain experience examining patients during medical school and residency. For Ibtissam Gad, MD, a clinical assistant professor in Michigan Medicine's Division of Rheumatology, one limitation stood out. Learners often had relatively few opportunities to practice distinguishing subtle swelling by touch, and asking patients whose joints were already painful to undergo repeated examinations wasn't ideal for anyone involved.
