Vascular Surgery Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Hospital

The Vascular Surgery Fellowship at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is a two-year program that exposes physicians to a high volume of open and endovascular surgical cases. Training at The Mount Sinai Hospital, one of the busiest sites for vascular surgery, fellows work alongside talented faculty on complex aortic cases, diagnostic studies, angioplasties, and chemoembolizations. In addition to diverse clinical rotations, our fellows are involved in extensive research activities. The Vascular Surgery Fellowship offers extensive experience in both the interpretation and hands-on performance of noninvasive studies and qualifies you to sit for competitive exams such as the Registered Physician in Vascular Interpretation examination.

Over the course of the fellowship, you will spend one year at The Mount Sinai Hospital, six months in the interventional radiology rotation, six months at Mount Sinai Morningside, and receive two months of paid vacation, which is integrated throughout the fellowship schedule. Fellows are encouraged to take elective rotations with the Vascular Diagnostics Lab. As part of the research component to the fellowship, our fellows are expected to submit abstracts to major vascular meetings, participate and present at conferences, and publish book chapters and journal articles.
