Interested physicians must submit an application form (downloadable from our website) along with a non-refundable check for two hundred fifty dollars.
Educational Programs
Each clinical department has its own educational program, but most educational activities include frequent bedside rounds, case presentations, formal lectures and teaching conferences.
Cost Estimates and Payment Procedures
A charge of $85,000 per year for each full-time fellow will be charged to the sponsoring institution. This amount will cover educational, clinical and administrative costs.
