MaineHealth Program
About This Program
Our program is intentionally designed to promote balance and sustainability. Fellows have a capped census (10 in the first year, 15 in the second), a 2+2 model in year one and 1+3 model in year two, and a dedicated night float system. We offer unique opportunities in interventional, critical care, and transplant nephrology, with close one-on-one mentorship fostered by our medium-sized program.
