Mass General Brigham/Massachusetts General Hospital Program
About This Program
The MGH HF program is unique in the depth of exposure to critical care cardiology - with a very high volume of temporary cardiac support performed annually. Fellows are directly involved in the care of these patients. On the other end of the spectrum, our fellowship is unique in that part of our outpatient experience involves provision of heart failure care in under-resourced communities in our region. Fellows are able to take on a broad variety of faculty roles post-graduation after training.
