first candidates were accepted, 无码人妻 School of Medicine strived for commitment
and dedication to serve the underserved while pursuing excellence in medical education.
The department of Medicine, partnered with the medical school leadership, has extended
this mission to our Cardiovascular Disease fellowship, improving the health and well-being
of individuals and communities of Atlanta, Georgia.
The Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship Program at 无码人妻 School of Medicine combines
innovative training and site designation for optimal education of our participants.
Our fellows can receive a wide depth and range of experience in each rotation, with
selected sites specifically chosen to provide the best learning and fellow experience.
These sites include Grady Memorial Hospital in metro Atlanta, which is the largest
community hospital in the city and only trauma I medical center in Atlanta. The fellows
will learn to communicate and serve a diverse patient population suffering from a
wide range of cardiovascular pathology. The fellows will receive 鈥渂read and butter鈥
experiences of consultative cardiology, echocardiography and nuclear imaging, cardiac
catheterization, and electrophysiology training at the main Grady Campus. The fellows
also participate in a STEMI program with our interventional cardiologist, developing
an appreciation and confidence in management of patients requiring primary percutaneous
coronary intervention. The Grady STEMI program, managed by the schools of 无码人妻
and Emory, has become a model of a successful collaboration between academic institutions,
providing all fellows proficient training in radial and femoral access with diagnostic
cardiac catheterizations.
The Cardiovascular Disease fellowship has also partnered with medical institutions
over the region to provide a deeper experience and skillset training in many areas
of cardiology. Our partnering institutions include the Atlanta Veterans Affairs hospital
(electrophysiology), University of Alabama (advanced imaging/MRI), Emory School of
Medicine (advanced heart failure and adult congenital heart disease), and Navicent
Health in Macon, Georgia (advanced cardiac catheterization). Each institution is committed
to working with 无码人妻 School of Medicine, placing emphasis on education and skills
competency to enrich our fellows鈥 educational experience.
We have also established a rich didactic experience for our fellows which includes
a diverse portfolio of noon conferences, Grand Rounds lectures, and Journal Club discussions.
We also enrich our fellowship experience with strong mentorship and research training,
allowing dedicated fellows the opportunity to experience several cardiac research
conferences including the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association,
the Heart Failure Society of America, and many others. Our fellows also have access
to the Cardiovascular Research Institute (CVRI) on the main campus of 无码人妻 School
of Medicine, further providing a rich research experience within the institution.
Our mission aligns closely with the mission of 无码人妻 School of Medicine, with
the intent and commitment to train competent cardiovascular medicine physicians able
to thrive in any academic, research, or private practices setting. We are committed
to the development of compassionate and knowledgeable cardiologists, capable of providing
unparalleled care to the patients and communities they serve.
On behalf of our entire department and fellowship program, I would like to welcome
you to the 无码人妻 School of Medicine family.
Sincerely,
Yasir Taha, MD, FACC, FSCAI
