St. Joseph’s Physicians welcomes a nocturnal hospitalist

Physician Daniel Lewis has joined St. Joseph’s Health Hospital as a nocturnal hospitalist.

Lewis received his Bachelor of Science in human development with a concentration in cognitive development from Cornell University’s College of Human Ecology in Ithaca. He then earned his medical degree from University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine where he also completed a year as a general surgery preliminary resident.

Before pursuing his medical degree, Lewis studied electrical and nuclear power theory. He served six years in the U.S. Navy as a nuclear electrician’s mate aboard the Theodore Roosevelt CVN-71 and was deployed during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Lewis completed his residency at St. Joseph’s Health. He is board-certified in family medicine.

“I believe my diversified resume translates well for a hospitalist who treats patients with such a wide array of illnesses and injuries,” said Lewis. “I love the challenge of a constantly changing work environment. I’m looking forward to continuing my career at St. Joseph’s Health Hospital.”

Lewis has also trained as a fine dining cook under a certified master chef from the Culinary Institute of America. His other interests include software development, working on cars and caring for his pets.
