An array of complex Nephrology cases in different clinical settings, accompanied by our outstanding Faculty, affords trainees an excellent educational experience. Trainees will be expected to not only become excellent clinicians, but to learn about all aspects of Nephrology and participate in national and international conferences.
The program provides abundant opportunity for clinical and basic science research, scholarly activities, publications and participation in clinical trials. Our trainees have consistently presented, published and excelled in their careers after graduation.
Nephrology / Critical Care Track
Our dual program is for those interested in achieving board certification in both Nephrology and Critical Care Medicine. It is a combined three-year program. To apply to this specific program simply identify your interest on your application.
WMC offers an exceptional opportunity to be an excellent provider in both specialties. The 795-bed hospital includes 9 ICUs ( Neuro, Cardiothoracic, Surgical, Medical, Burn, Trauma as well as the CCU which collectively accounts for over 80 beds ). WMC also supports a comprehensive Transplant service for heart, kidney and liver transplant further rounding out the experience.
The breadth and depth of the Critical Care experience allows the fellow to become proficient the care of critically-ill transplant patients, ultrasonography, ECMO and renal replacement therapies (CVVHD, SLEDD). Academic responsibilities will include journal club and case presentations as well as research projects.
The three-year program provides comprehensive exposure to the required academics in Nephrology while learning Critical Care Medicine. Heavily oriented towards Nephrology in the first two years of the program, it provides the fellow the opportunity to sit for Nephrology subspecialty boards after the second year, and the Critical Care subspecialty boards after graduation.
Transplant
The Kidney Transplant Program opened its doors in 1989 and has transplanted over 2500 patients since that time. We utilize a multidisciplinary team and patient-focused approach to evaluate and provide care to patients and their families, regardless of their economic, geographic, racial, or ethnic background.
Goals of Training
The fundamental goals and objectives of the Nephrology Training Program are to provide advanced education and experience to enable fellows to deliver compassionate, thorough, and evidence-based care to a medically and socially diverse population of patients. This includes inpatient and outpatient consultation; acute and chronic dialysis, including continuous modalities; chronic kidney disease care, including the care of patients with glomerular diseases; and the care for renal allograft recipients. The fellow will be provided with educational opportunities required for acquiring Board Certification in the subspecialty of Nephrology and, where applicable, Critical Care. Fellows can be mentored towards an academic clinical or basic science research career if interested. The philosophy of the program is to develop a commitment and dedication to scholarly excellence in patient care, teaching, and research in an environment of professionalism.
Fellows Life
Our fellows have the opportunities to present and attend different academic conferences including the NKF (National Kidney Foundation), (SCCM) Society of Critical Care Medicine and ASN (American Society of Nephrology) meetings. Westchester County and the Hudson Valley is well known for outdoor and nature inspired experiences, with access to rock climbing, hiking and skiing. The campus is less than 30 minutes from New York City.
Fellows’ wellbeing is supported by regular group gatherings in and outside the hospital. We take fellows’ wellness very seriously and continue to improve the program while taking advantage of comprehensive benefits and our own GME-focused wellness initiatives.
