With ample equipment and a great mentor, the bounds are endless! Dr. Ashby is a passionate teacher and has created the program with the help of our amazing team at CVC! During the 8-week program all 1st year Fellows (F1), are fully integrated into the VCRT Google Workspace where weekly agendas and assignments through Google Classroom are assigned concerning the weekly topics & lectures he or other specialties provide. During the program, the Fellows will learn in-office triaging skills like taking vitals, running an EKG, understanding medication, etc. 

Our program has gone through lots of changes but one thing remains the same... our students SUCCESS! Many of Dr. Ashby's Fellows have gone on to pursue their dream in medicine while attending prestige schools and participating in competitive research labs such as the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford University. Not including the endless top-tier medical school acceptances like the University of Miami, Florida International University,  New York University, and so many more!

At VCRT we are ALL about expanding on the different medical fields outside of cardiology. Learn and connect with Plastic surgeons, chiropractors, IV therapy Nurses, Podiatrists, and more! The program also frequently connects with medical schools in the area like the University of Miami Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine where we have participated in the Homeless shelter mission alongside other medical students. This program opens doors for all fellows who see the program through.
