The Fellowship Program trains specialists in Maternal-Fetal Medicine, with additional expertise in basic or clinical research, public health or epidemiology. The program prepares physicians for two possible career paths:
- Academic medicine with a foundation in research, with the capability to make significant contributions to the academic community.
- Community sub-specialty practice, with the knowledge and skills to act as a consultant to general obstetricians and be active in improving the delivery of health care to the population as a whole.
The fellowship training sites offer unique opportunities for continuous learning and professional growth. At the University of Minnesota Medical Center – Fairview, fellows have the unique opportunity to provide tertiary care for a population of over 10,000 deliveries.
Hennepin County Medical Center is the top Level I trauma center in the five state region. HCMC serves a large indigent population, and during the rotation at this site, MFM fellows have the opportunity to manage severe trauma in pregnancy, substance abuse, and HIV infections.
Abbott-Northwestern Hospital offers patients specialized and unique medical services. The adjacent Minneapolis Children’s Hospital enhances the rare and complicated diseases and disorders affecting the fetus and the newborn.
