Transplant Hepatology Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Hospital

The Transplant Hepatology Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Hospital provides premier training for tomorrow's leaders in academic hepatology. Situated within the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, our Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-accredited program offers comprehensive clinical experience across all aspects of liver disease, with fellows taking an active role in the management of all forms of advanced liver disease. They also gain significant exposure to complex referrals through training at the Recanati/Miller Transplantation Institute, one of the nation's leading transplantation centers.

In 1988 the Recanati/Miller Transplantation Institute performed the first liver transplant in New York State. Today we continue to perform a high volume of liver transplants (approximately 170 annually), including living donation and multi-visceral transplantation. As a prominent referral center, we treat patients with a high level of care that remains unmatched by other institutions. Our teams also work together to address socioeconomic hurdles to ensure all patients have access to equitable care.

Our fellows follow a curriculum and mentorship program designed to maximize their preparation as future transplant hepatologists. Integrated into the division as colleagues, they benefit from a large faculty with expertise in all areas of hepatology, and throughout training, participants enhance their endoscopic skills and learn percutaneous liver biopsy skills. The curriculum is further strengthened by personalized research mentorship, scholarship, and fellow-led academic activities.

Graduates of Mount Sinai's Transplant Hepatology Fellowship program consistently secure positions at leading medical institutions across the United States and the world.
