Medical Student Rotations
We welcome medical students in seeking surgical clerkship training and advanced training (sub-Is) to our vascular and endovascular surgery services across the health system. Due to COVID-19, we are not accepting away in-person rotations currently.
Due to COVID-19, in-person rotations are not being offered currently for visiting students. However, we just successfully completed our first virtual sub-I rotation this fall. We will be offering a subsequent 3-week virtual rotation in the new year. This virtual rotation will include daily exposure in the wards, clinics, vascular lab and intra-operatively to our breadth of open and endovascular cases.
