Each fellow rotates through service at UAMS, CAVHS and AHH in one month blocks. Each fellow will spend a total of four months at each of the co-sponsoring institutions. Each fellow has a continuity clinic weekly at CAVHS. Procedural training is supplemented by a comprehensive lectures series that reviews an extended core curriculum of interventional cardiology topics and a weekly case-based conference. Our fellows also benefit from our division’s active visiting professor program.
