Curriculum

Residents will have dedicated time for didactics three times a week during the first two months of their fellowship. Along with didactics, other educational activities such as challenging case conference, morning meetings, and journal clubs will occur on a regular basis. As per ACGME requirements, residents will also do a Quality Improvement (QI) QI project under allocated protected time. We value wellness for both residents and faculty, and we appreciate the GME department's support and emphasis on this aspect in all its programs.
