We will develop your expertise in the fundamentals of advanced clinical ultrasound and teaching while fostering excellence in administration and research. At the core of our program is ensuring an exceptional educational experience for our fellows. We welcome applicants from Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Family Medicine.

Nestled in the stunning Mid-Hudson Valley, Vassar Brothers Medical Center serves as a cornerstone for our vibrant community, catering to an urban, suburban, and rural catchment area. With eight residency and six fellowship programs, we proudly offer an immersive environment for medical education. Our Ultrasound fellows educate a diverse range of learners, including medical students, physician assistant students, and residents from Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, Family Practice, Transitional Year, and Anesthesia.

Throughout the program, our fellows benefit from a variety of educational activities including weekly fellows’ academic conference day, bimonthly SIM sessions, monthly research meetings, and weekly fellow-faculty scanning sessions. Notably, the initial month of the fellowship is exclusively dedicated to one-on-one fellow-faculty scanning, allowing for focused and personalized instruction without additional US learners. Additionally, we offer elective months in research, international US, pain management, and regional anesthesia. Furthermore, we collaborate with our sports medicine and EMS programs, offering valuable opportunities in prehospital ultrasound education and advanced musculoskeletal ultrasound.
