Surgical Critical Care Fellowship

Acute Care Fellowship

The Acute Care Fellowship program at Yale is designed to train leaders in academic emergency general surgery and trauma through a rigorous clinical and educational experience. One surgeon is accepted annually into this program, and they are immersed into the management of critically ill and injured patients. The program also provides the opportunity for the fellow to gain unique expertise in specialty areas through elective rotations and research.

Qualified applicants must meet the following prerequisites:

• Completion of an approved general surgery residency with Board eligibility or certification by the American Board of Surgery, or
• Completion of three years of general surgery residency with a designated categorical position, and
• Established ability as a teacher of medical students and residents.

Description

The Acute Care Surgery Program offers the fellow exposure to hepatobiliary, orthopedic, plastic/reconstructive, neurosurgery, and emergency general surgery as well as exposure endoscopic and endovascular techniques. This one year fellowship program, designed to address the particular interests of the matriculating fellow, allows added exposure to complex surgical techniques. Graduates of the program have gone on to academic surgical departments as trauma, surgical critical care and emergency general surgeons.
