Senior Fellows Program – 2nd and 3rd Year – September 20-21 (Hybrid)

If you are a GI Fellow, the good news is that gastroenterology has the most job opportunities among the internal medicine subspecialties. This includes an expanding array of opportunities across the U.S., including private groups, with partnerships, hospitals, and academic settings. Candidates can find partnerships with a buy-in, partnerships with no buy-in required and jobs that require advanced endoscopy procedural skills. Hands-on training will be part of this curriculum. Registration will open in February.

Advanced Endoscopy Fellows Course - September 13-14 (In-Person only)

Led by Course Directors, Drs. Amit Bhatt (Cleveland Clinic) and Douglas Pleskow (Beth Israel Deaconess). This course is designed for Advanced Endoscopy Fellows who are focusing their careers on advanced endoscopy techniques, combining video editing skills with hands-on instruction on a variety of cutting-edge techniques. Case-based lectures by renowned faculty will be held in an intimate atmosphere. In exchange for this excellent opportunity, fellows are expected to submit a video to the DDW video forum. Registration will open early in February.
