Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center Program
About This Program
Our program strengths include a strong clinical and procedural training experience. This includes a tertiary-care referral MICU, advanced diagnostic bronchoscopy including EBUS and peripheral navigation, and a busy outpatient general pulmonary continuity clinic for fellows. We enjoy a warm and collegial environment where fellows receive excellent support from their faculty, and work closely with one another. Opportunities for scholarly work are plentiful, and supported by experienced mentors.
