Special Features

Our program is well-suited to a clinical hands-on learning environment. This includes a large exposure to patients throughout the state, transports from surrounding communities, and specialized clinical centers such as the Center of Clinical Excellence in Placenta Accreta. There are 2 main hospitals that MFM fellows will cover during rotations and when on-call. There is also a mixture of clinical experiences with both academic and private practice MFM specialists.
