ENDOCRINOLOGY FELLOWSHIP
The fellowship offered in the Endocrinology Division is a two year program (with an optional third year dedicated to research). The program includes rotations both at University Hospital and the Veterans Administration Hospital. It is a comprehensive program involving inpatient consultations, outpatient clinic visits, clinical conferences and commonly performed procedures, such as fine needle aspiration of the thyroid. Fellows get a wide variety of experience in nuclear medicine as well as pathology by attending conferences on these subjects. Rotations through pediatric and reproductive endocrinology are scheduled during the fellowship. Fellows are encouraged to develop a research project and to attend national scientific meetings. Topic oriented didactic sessions are organized by the Endocrine faculty weekly. Fellows are expected to sit for the Endocrinology Boards at the end of the fellowship.
