The Division of Vascular Surgery at the University of Wisconsin Department of Surgery, is pleased to announce that it has recently obtained RRC approval of its 0-5 Vascular Surgery Residency. The major goals of this integrated program are to provide incremental, progressive training in core surgery and vascular surgery during the five-year program and focus on areas that will be critically important to the needs of a practicing vascular specialist. Over the course of the five-year training period, vascular residents will spend a total of 24 months on core surgery rotations and 36 months on vascular surgery rotations. There is one position available starting June 24, 2012.
Chairman of the Division of Vascular Surgery is Jon Matsumura, MD, a leader in the field of endovascular care. K. Craig Kent, MD, is chairman of the Department of Surgery and a past president of the Society for Vascular Surgery. This five year training program is designed to produce surgeons who can provide comprehensive care to the vascular patient and be expected to fully participate in the rapid expansion of the field of vascular surgery, both clinically and academically.
We will accept application materials through ERAS and participate in the NRMP beginning September 1, 2011.
