Thank you for your interest in our American Board of Surgery accredited Vascular and Endovascular Fellowship at University of Medicine & Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) at Camden. This program offers a two year ACGME fully accredited fellowship in Vascular Surgery. Cooper University Hospital is the largest academic medical center and the only Level I Trauma Center in Southern New Jersey. The medical center serves the needs of a broad patient population consisting of primary, secondary and tertiary medical care.
Program Description
The overall goal of the Fellowship in Vascular Surgery at the Cooper University Hospital is to develop our trainees into expert clinicians that are proficient in all aspects of the diagnosis, management, and treatment of vascular disease. These goals are fostered in an environment of progressively graded clinical and operative experience and responsibility.
Within the limits of variability found in a clinical practice an equivalent experience will be afforded each resident, under the guidance and supervision of qualified teaching staff. In so doing the Fellow will exercise mature surgical judgment and operative skills which prepare him/her to provide independent care to patients with vascular disease.
Our faculty is enthusiastic and committed to teaching. We have 4 vascular surgeons, 4 Nurse Practitioners and 4 outpatient vascular labs. Our case volume currently is generous at about procedure per month with a mix of both open and endovascular aortic and peripheral recontructions.
Electives are open at this point as our program figures to be 5 + 2 and strongly incorporates our outpatient ultrasound lab.
