UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine/UCLA Medical Center Program
About This Program
Los Angeles is home to one of the most culturally, socioeconomically, and medically diverse populations in the United States. This diversity enriches the experience of our Interventional Pulmonology fellows by providing exposure to a wide spectrum of diseases and complex pathologies. As a major referral center for rare and high-acuity conditions, UCLA offers a robust procedural experience that prepares fellows to manage even the most challenging cases.
