All Years

Fellows engage in two weekly half-day continuity clinics:

A "Fellows Clinic" where trainees "own" their patients and manage them through diagnosis, treatment, maintenance, relapse and surveillance of their primary disorders for the duration they are in training
A weekly half-day subspecialty clinic divided into 3-month tumor-specific blocks designed to increase tumor-specific exposure while ensuring long enough follow up to manage patients throughout evaluation and initiation and maintenance of chemotherapy.

The main aims of the program are: to provide comprehensive training in the evaluation and management of patients with cancer, leading to board eligibility in the subspecialties of Medical Oncology and Hematology; and to provide trainees with the option of tumor-specific clinical training or a path to clinician-scientist/translational-researcher based on their chosen career path in clinical or academic medicine.
