Joel Rayl, MD, Internist with Summa Health Medical Group.
Get to know Internist Dr. Joel Rayl, who serves patients in Akron, Ohio.
A top professional in the field of internal medicine, Dr. Rayl holds the position of Associate Director of the Internal Medicine Center, where he continues to contribute significantly to medical education and innovation. His role extends beyond clinical practice, as he has emerged as a faculty innovator, particularly in the areas of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) use and resident evaluation.
The doctor’s acclaimed career in medicine began after he graduated from The Northeast Ohio Medical University in 2015. Furthermore, he went on to complete his residency in Internal Medicine at Summa Health System in 2018, where he excelled and was subsequently appointed as the Chief Resident for the Medicine Residency.
One notable achievement in Dr. Rayl’s career is the implementation, in collaboration with Dr. Tatar, of a cutting-edge mobile evaluation system. This system facilitates direct observation of medical residents, allowing faculty members to create and send evaluations coded for the level of supervision required and suggesting next steps for improvement—all on the same day as the observation. The impact of this initiative has been substantial, with the number of evaluations increasing five-fold within the first year of its implementation.
In addition to his contributions to resident evaluation, he is actively involved in advancing medical training through the development of a curriculum for Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS). This curriculum aims to enhance the skills of both faculty and residents in utilizing ultrasound for physical diagnosis—a crucial modality in modern healthcare.
Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Physicians specializing in internal medicine are called internists. They manage and prevent common and complex diseases by providing comprehensive care and promoting overall well-being.
