We are proud to offer a one-year ACGME-accredited Surgical Critical Care Fellowship. Two fellows per year are trained to become experts and leaders in the management of critically ill and injured patient populations.

As a quaternary referral center located in vibrant Center City Philadelphia, Jefferson offers a high acuity surgical ICU experience that includes complex elective and emergent general surgery, advanced surgical oncology and multi-organ transplantation

Additionally, Jefferson is one of only a few Level I trauma and regional resource spinal cord injury centers in the country and is also the region's hand replant center as well as burn center, thus providing a unique mix of multi-injured patients. The main training environment is our spacious, renovated, and surgeon led 17-bed SICU. Further training is provided in the CVICU, which cares for patients requiring advanced cardiac support, including ECMO and ventricular assist devices. Additional training in our Neurological Intensive Care Units and via elective opportunities rounds out the clinical experience.

I have trained at four institutions and found Jefferson to be the best learning environment of all the places I trained. As a fellow, I was able to function as a junior attending.
