Curriculum

Fellowship Rotations

Our cardiology fellowship program is "front loaded" with rotations in the first two years that support foundational, well-rounded learning opportunities. Other important features include:

• The majority of Cardiac ICU call is completed in the first year

• A night float system with all night call completed in the first year

• F2 rotations are primarily based at the VA

• The third year of training is customized based on your interests and career goals.

Conferences

We work closely with fellows to define topical, engaging, and valuable didactic education and skills training. We leverage principles of adult learning and make smart use of technology to ensure that what you’re learning is relevant and delivered in the best format. Special conferences include monthly journal clubs, lectures on research methods and mentorship, and joint multi-modality imaging conferences.

Fellowship Bootcamp

During the first 6 weeks of the year, incoming fellows receive a series of high yield lectures, shadow current fellows, and get hands on training in the Echo and Cath labs. We've found this leads to a smooth transition to fellowship without prolonging orientation.
