Consultation-Liaison (C-L) Psychiatry has been an important component of psychiatry for over 70 years and a certified subspecialty under the American Board of Medical Specialties since 2004. Brigham and Women’s Hospital has one of the largest C-L divisions and one of the largest C-L fellowship programs in the country, with a mission to maintain strong bonds between psychiatry and other specialties of medicine.
