We Are Weill Cornell Medicine: Dr. Lia Logio

Practicing medicine is for Dr. Lia Logio as much an art as it is a form of love. The daughter of a teacher and a doctor, Logio combined the passions of both in her pursuit of a career that is wholly her own: a physician who teaches how to doctor. 

“In my role, I get to imprint my passion and excitement for caring for patients to the next generation,” said Logio, vice chair for education and the Herbert J. and Ann L. Siegel Distinguished Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine, as well as program director of the Weill Department of Medicine Residency Program at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center. “It’s really a labor of love to get to know them and help them navigate to their successes. And in some small way, you have pride in watching them accomplish wonderful things.”
