WHAT’S NEW
Point of Care (POC) Ultrasound Curriculum
As nephrologist we use data to help us treat our patients. POC ultrasound (POCUS) lets us make better decisions at the bedside. Our fellows start with our ultrasound simulator until they are comfortable and then practice on phantoms. They get real hands on experience during ultrasound rounds.
Our Ultrasound Curriculum
A few things we’re great at
Our fellows leave ready to work in multiple settings. What makes us different is that we will allow you to create a specialized tract with electives and conferences that help you become a well rounded physician.
MEDICAL EDUCATION
Work with our medical education faculty and develop traditional and digital teaching content.
ULTRASONOGRAPHY
Our point-of-care ultrasound program focuses on renal US, but basic bedside echocardiography, lung US and POCUS for volume assessment.
RESEARCH
Create individual projects or work with faculty projects ranging from basic science research in molecular,cell biology, physiology to clinical research in hypertension and hemodialysis.
HOME DIALYSIS
We provide our fellows with a longitudinal experience by attending our home dialysis clinics to care for individuals on home hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
