The position includes clinical responsibilities in the Surgical Critical Care Service with significant components of trauma, non-trauma, and neurosurgical critical care, Cardiac surgery critical care, and a rotation in the MICU. The applicant must have completed an ACGME-approved residency in General Surgery by the start date.  

Fellows will have 6 – 7 in-house calls and will work 2 weekends per month.
