The ultimate goal is for each fellow to establish their own independent company or practice within a three-year timeframe. We are committed to nurturing entrepreneurial ventures that are agile and adaptable in the evolving healthcare landscape, especially considering the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence. By empowering fellows to create their own enterprises, we aim to equip them with the tools and foresight needed to navigate and thrive in an increasingly uncertain future.

Fellows will be engaged as independent contractors, allowing them flexibility and autonomy in their professional endeavors. For tax purposes, fellows will receive a 1099 form reflecting their independent contractor status. This structure is designed to support the fellows’ financial stability while they focus on their learning, projects, and entrepreneurial ventures throughout the duration of the fellowship.

What Types of Clinical Activities Will Fellows Engage in During the Fellowship?

Fellows in our program will have a dynamic clinical experience, encompassing both inpatient and outpatient settings. The first year is intensive, with a significant amount of inpatient responsibilities, gradually tapering off in the second and third years.

This diverse clinical experience is designed to equip our fellows with a well-rounded skill set, critical for future healthcare challenges.
