Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Hospital

The Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship Program at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is a three-year program that provides comprehensive training in all aspects of clinical cardiology, education, and research. Accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), the fellowship prepares trainees for academic careers through extensive clinical, administrative, and research experiences. General and subspecialty board-certified pediatric cardiologists at Mount Sinai Children’s Heart Center and Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital provide the core training, with additional teaching, offered by a wide range of pediatric medical and surgical experts at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Fellows are exposed to the entire range of pediatric cardiovascular conditions during their training. Treating children with congenital and acquired heart disease, fellows use state-of-the-art equipment and collaborate with divisions of cardiothoracic surgery, critical care, neonatology, maternal-fetal medicine, radiology, genetics, and other appropriate experts and specialists. We offer fellows robust mentorship support in their career and research pursuits. Fellows are assigned a unique faculty member at the beginning of training to monitor their progression over the three years and set them on the right path towards productive academic careers.
