Hospitalists

A hospitalist is a physician who specializes in the medical care of hospitalized patients. A hospitalist works with many other care providers, including primary care providers, specialists, surgeons, nurses, therapists and nutritionists to make sure patients receive the care they need for optimal outcomes.

Our patients are provided compassionate care through a team of board certified internal and family medicine physicians, including BCMH staff physician Benjamin Crary, DO, FAAFP. BCMH also collaborates with ConnectCare Hospitalists. The ConnectCare Physician team includes Board Certified, Internal and Family Medicine Physicians who are always up to date with the latest advances in Hospitalist Medicine.
