About Us

Actively involved with advancing technologies and the changing health care environment, The George Washington University Health Sciences Programs emphasizes the independent roles of health sciences professionals involved in a variety of disciplines. These professionals are members of a team working to provide the most efficient, effective, and caring service possible.

State-of-the-art facilities

Health Sciences’ offices, classrooms, and practical spaces – located in state-of-the-art facilities on the 6th floor of The George Washington University Hospital – provide students with an educational experience unmatched almost anywhere else in the country.

The Clinical Skills Center includes the Surgical Simulation and Demonstration Area, which provides highly realistic scenarios for surgical training, and the Standardized Patient Examining area, designed to teach and evaluate students in the basic clinical skills of patient history taking and physical examination, as well as communication and interpersonal skills.

The new, fully equipped Physical Therapy Room, complete with “mock” kitchen and bathroom, allows for real-life patient skills training.
