The Internal Medicine Service at Yale is named after Dr Paul Beeson, one of the most illustrious figures in American medicine in the latter half of the 20th century, who was Chairman of Medicine at Yale from 1952 until 1965.
The Beeson Service occupies the fifth, eighth, ninth, and tenth floors of the East Pavilion, the Fifth floor of the South Pavilion (Medical Intensive Care Unit and Coronary Care Unit), and the ninth floor of the West Pavilion (Medical Oncology). Most of the services are now fairly well localized geographically.
