Obstetric Anesthesiology Fellowship
The Department of Anesthesiology at Vanderbilt University offers a single ACGME accredited, one-year Obstetric Anesthesiology Fellowship position annually. The program is committed to providing the highest quality training for future leaders, educators, researchers, and practitioners of obstetrical anesthesiology.
The fellowship program includes a rigorous & highly mentored core fellowship curriculum, devoted to fundamental goals & objectives. Equally important, the program offers a high degree of flexibility and encourages the formulation of individual programs of learning and achievement that address the unique interests & career goals of each fellow, whether their paths be oriented to clinical care, scholarship, administration, education, private practice, academics, or research. Fellows enjoy a vast abundance of clinical & academic resources that support & enhance their professional development.
The program typically starts in July or August, although other start dates may be considered. Applications should be submitted as early as possible, ideally at least a year in advance (e.g. during the the applicant's CA2 year). Selected applicants will be invited to Vanderbilt for a personal interview.
The program offers an attractive salary & benefits package. Vanderbilt is fortunate to be located in warm and sunny Nashville, a city of endless possibilities for enjoying leisure, sports, music, culture, and natural splendors. Travel to and from Nashville is easy, thanks to a full-service international airport hub and the intersection of three interstate highways.
We invite your interest in our program. For additional information, kindly contact Michael G. Richardson, MD, Director, Obstetric Anesthesiology Fellowship Program, via the program's fellowship coordinator, Margaret-Ann Koontz, 615-322-8476.
