Becoming a General Surgeon<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n

Becoming a surgeon is a long and rewarding process. We make sure that our medical students have rotations with our division. Our goal is to provide them with exposure and instruction in the care of critically ill patients. For those that want to continue on in their education through a surgical residency or fellowship program, our division and department
\noffers a wide array of opportunities.<\/p>\"Education<\/p>\n

Our residency programs include general surgery, cardiothoracic, plastic, and vascular surgery. We also offer additional fellowship programs including abdominal transplant, burn, minimally invasive, surgical critical care, surgical oncology and vascular surgery. If you are interested in learning about what we have to offer, please click on the links below to find out more about these programs.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n
