About This Program
Our fellowship is a combined 3-year hematology and medical oncology program accredited by the ACGME. You will be eligible to sit for the Boards of Hematology and Oncology. The program is structured with a broad core curriculum with interactions with pathology, surgery and other health-related professionals. The patient population seen in the clinical services of our program speaks Spanish, so applicants and fellows must speak and write Spanish fluently.
