My name is Charlotte Chaiklin, MD, and I am an assistant professor in the division of general internal medicine. As a Gainesville native, I am happy to return to my community to provide care as a board-certified internal medicine physician. I am passionate about medical education with particular interest in teaching and mentoring medical students and resident physicians. Some of the conditions for which I treat patients for include high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and heart failure. I also provide preventive care, including vaccination counseling, women's health services, men's health services and age-appropriate cancer screenings.
