University of Cincinnati Medical Center/College of Medicine Program
About This Program
The Cincinnati Children's Adult Congenital Heart Disease fellowship sets itself apart by being a program based out of our world-class pediatric institution while still incorporating a wide-ranging set of experiences including connections to our large adult hospital affiliate (University of Cincinnati) and referring community-based programs as well as 2 thriving cardio-obstetrics programs. The ACHD program is nimble, allowing fellows to explore areas of focus aligning to future career interests.
