Julia Kavanagh, MD
Associate Clinical Professor, Medicine-Internal Medicine

Clinical Interests
Primary care for all adults (women and men), including care of chronic medical conditions. Some of the conditions I treat include hypertension, asthma, diabetes, heart disease, and other general medical problems. I also enjoy providing preventative medical care and health maintenance. In addition to general woman’s health, I provide IUD and implant contraceptive placement as well as pap smears.

Care Philosophy
I enjoy getting to know my patients personally, beyond just their blood pressure and lab tests, I think that helps me take better care of them. I encourage my patients to prevent medical problems, whenever possible, through exercise, healthy lifestyle, and appropriate screening. When my patients do get sick, I am there to help to diagnose the problem as quickly as possible, so that together we can chart a path back to health.

Personal Interests
My husband is also a physician and we have 2 beautiful children.
