Leadership of the Tufts Medical Center Infectious Diseases Fellowship
Welcome, and thank you for visiting our page.
As the Program Director and Associate Program Director of the Tufts Medical Center Infectious Diseases Fellowship, we’re proud to provide outstanding education and mentorship to the next generation of infectious disease specialists.
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we encourage fellows to explore and pursue their individual interests—whether in academic research, community practice, public health or industry. Our goal is to ensure that each fellow graduates with the skills, experience and confidence to thrive in the career path they choose.
We believe our hardworking fellows deserve respect and support. That’s why we offer competitive salaries, capped consult volumes and a balanced weekend call structure to promote wellness and learning. We also strongly value family and personal well-being, with maternity and paternity leave and protected sick time.
We’re excited to share more about our program and what makes Tufts Medical Center a uniquely supportive and enriching place to train.
