CDU Medical Director Kettering Health Medical Group Hospital Medicine

Sylvia Polenakovik, MD, is a hospitalist, a board-certified Internal Medicine physician specially trained in the care of hospitalized patients.

A hospitalist works with your primary care physician to provide you with the highest level of care while you are in the hospital. During your stay, you may meet one or more of our Kettering Health Medical Group Hospital Medicine Team as they provide you with exceptional, around-the-clock specialized care.

Hospitalists do not accept appointments-they provide specialized care for those inpatients within a hospital or medical center.
