Train with Boston’s leaders in heart failure + transplant cardiology
The Tufts Medical Center Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology Fellowship is a dynamic 12-month program designed to train the next generation of heart failure cardiologists. We pride ourselves in leading the region in heart transplant volume since 2023.
The Tufts Medical Center heart failure program is comprised of a dedicated group of core faculty members, inpatient and outpatient APPs, nurse coordinators, pharmacists, and other multidisciplinary team members who work together to deliver high-quality, compassionate, patient-centered care for some of the sickest patients in the Northeast. Fellows will have the opportunity to manage a wide variety of temporary and durable mechanical circulatory support devices under the supervision of nationally recognized experts. In addition, fellows will learn the intricacies of advanced heart failure therapy evaluation, including clinical evaluation, invasive hemodynamic assessment, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and multidisciplinary selection meeting presentation. Fellows will also have robust exposure to post-transplant complications, immunosuppression management, chronic left ventricular assist device support, and dedicated subspecialty clinic experiences in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, sarcoid cardiomyopathy, amyloid cardiomyopathy, and cardio-oncology. Clinical exposure is supplemented by weekly didactics, pathology rounds, and an exciting hands-on cardiogenic shock simulation experience.
