Special Features
The Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship at Cedars-Sinai aims to offer a comprehensive training program in an inclusive environment, dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in patient care and research that is tailored to an individual's career goals. Trainees are exposed to a multi-campus program with a diverse patient population, a wide variety of clinical issues and differing healthcare delivery systems. The program is structured to achieve medical knowledge, procedural skills, and communication skills necessary to function as effective consultants. We also offer a one-year fellowship in cardiac critical care medicine training for candidates who have completed training in cardiology.
