MMC supports three cardiology fellowship positions in each of the three years of training with additional funded research training available for appropriate fellows. Candidates must have successfully completed three years of training in internal medicine in an ACGME-approved residency program and be board-eligible in internal medicine. Candidate selection is based on the quality of previous training in Internal Medicine, evaluations by the Internal Medicine Program Director and other references, and the personal qualities of the candidate as evaluated during the interview process. We value emotional intelligence, diversity, effective communication skills, a strong work ethic, and teamwork.
Applications to the Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship Program at MMC are accepted through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Fellowship positions are offered through the Medical Specialties Matching Program of the National Resident Matching Program.
