Our attendings are the only ones to implant ICD at Stanford. Our fellows assist with the implantations, generator changes, and follow-up of these devices as well. Fellows will evaluate and manage patients with systemic arterioocclusive disease, thrombotic disorders, vasculitides, hypertension, venous and lymphatic diseases. Advanced skills in noninvasive assessment of vascular disease are available. All fellows are assigned one cardiology clinic per week, where they examine and discuss patients referred to Stanford Cardiovascular Medicine.
Continuity of care is emphasized, consistent with requirements of individual clinical rotations.
