Vascular Medicine Fellowship
Vascular Medicine Fellowship
The Vascular Medicine Fellowship at BIDMC offers a well-rounded and multidisciplinary approach to common and uncommon vascular disorders, striving to train the future academic leaders in Vascular Medicine. There is a particular focus on the management of complex hypertension, a cornerstone to optimal vascular management. Our fellowship promotes clinical excellence; trainees will develop the necessary foundational knowledge, grow to integrate the wide range of clinical diagnostic data, and formulate optimal treatment plans for complex vascular patients. The fellows work in a collegial environment rotating with other services that also treat vascular disease and attend lectures and conferences throughout the program. Additionally, our clinical training program is complemented by robust basic and clinical research opportunities. Below is the basic fellowship program structure.
