Perioperative Medicine and Onco-Anesthesia Fellowship
The Perioperative Medicine & Onco-Anesthesia Fellowship is a one-year program designed to provide specialized training in both perioperative medicine and onco-anesthesia. With a focus on the continuum of care for surgical patients, particularly those with cancer, the fellowship addresses gaps in traditional residency curricula by offering comprehensive expertise in these growing subspecialties. This combined curriculum equips trainees to become consultants in both fields, meeting the increasing demand for advanced care in these areas.
