This fellowship is a well-structured, mentored program that will involve a diversified experience, including all aspects of general thoracic surgery (including robotic surgery), adult cardiac surgery (aortic surgery, coronary bypass, valvular heart disease including TAVR, mitral valve repair and TMVR), mechanical circulatory support (VAD and ECMO), and congenital cardiothoracic surgery.

• Clinical teaching occurs daily in the OR, Clinics, & Surgical Wards
• Academic Conferences are held weekly, as well as M&M and tumor board conferences
