The American Board of Internal Medicine requires 2 years of electrophysiology fellowship training for board eligibility. During this time, fellows can maximize their learning with extra time rounding in the office with some of the senior electrophysiologists, and gain additional experience with multiple procedures, including ablation of atrial fibrillation, PSVT, ventricular tachycardia wth an endocardial and epicardial approach, and implantation of ICDs and pacemakers. It also provides ample time to do independent research.
It is important for fellows to learn how to prepare case studies for presentation and discussion. As such, they are expected to be a part of the weekly lecture series developing cases with faculty input and presenting them for discussion. This skillset will be useful throughout your career.
THIS IS YOUR FELLOWSHIP and the ultimate goal is to allow you to become a leader in your chosen field of cardiology.
CCEP Fellowship Opportunity:
