Transplant Hepatology Fellowship

About Our Fellowship Training Program

The Transplant Hepatology Fellowship Training Program at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center is a one-year intensive clinical training program offered to applicants who have completed a full three-year GI fellowship.

The Transplant Hepatology Fellowship is an ACGME-accredited program that meets ABIM requirements for Board Eligibility for certification in Transplant Hepatology and provides both extensive inpatient and outpatient clinical experience, as well as didactic teaching, in order to prepare the trainee to diagnose and manage advanced complex liver disease, and to manage pre- and post-transplant hepatology patients.

Inpatient responsibilities include care of pre and post-transplant liver patients, performing procedures (including routine upper and lower endoscopy and liver biopsy) and the education and supervision of housestaff. Outpatient clinical activities include patient care in the Transplant Hepatology and General Hepatology Clinic, transplant observational activities, and quality improvement projects.
