We are proud to highlight our Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism Fellowship Program, which is university affiliated community-based with emphasis on providing evidence based and cost-effective endocrine care across a broad spectrum of patient populations, since the 1980’s.
The program offers two new fellowship positions every year and has two training sites which have varied opportunities for learning and complement each other; The Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center in North Chicago (a Department of Defense/Veterans Administration hospital providing care to active-duty personnel, families, and veterans) and Mount Sinai Hospital, Chicago (an inner-city hospital).
This program offers broad-based training in endocrinology and meets ACGME program requirements for clinical endocrine fellowship training. Program highlights are exposure to a varied patient population at two different sites with a wealth of endocrine pathology, and experience in endocrine procedures. Our faculty are leaders in their respective endocrine areas. The faculty is dedicated to supporting our fellows personalized interests, while promoting resilience and wellness. We focus on achievement of the highest education experience. In addition, fellows and faculty are involved in scholarly activity with abstract presentations at national and international scientific sessions and publications, as well as clinical research. We are proud that our fellowship graduates, who have had endocrine positions post-graduation. Many have become leaders, and keynote speakers at National and International meetings, Chiefs of Endocrinology, Endocrine Fellowship Program, Directors, and those who currently have teaching, Clinical care, as well as Research positions.
