| Fellowship Training Programs | ||||||
| Cardiovascular & Thoracic Anesthesia - Adult or Pediatric | ||||||
| The focus of the Cardiovascular and Thoracic Fellowship
is to provide an environment in which to acquire the knowledge and skills
required to provide outstanding care in Cardiovascular and Thoracic Anesthesia.
The program is set up as a one year training period, with full exposure
to complex aortic, vascular, cardiac and vulvular cases. A dedicated month
is spent in the echo lab, under the supervision of experienced echocardiographers.
In addition to adult cardiac procedures, fellows will participate in Congenital
Pediatric Cardiac procedures. For those wishing to pursue Pediatric Cardiac training,
the Fellowship will be more heavily weighted toward that goal, with a minimum
of two months of adult cardiac training. Explore

| Critical Care Anesthesia (ACGME Accredited # 045-48-21-032) | ||||||
The ACGME accredited Critical Care Medicine Fellowship provides you with subspecialty training in the expert management of critically ill patients in an intensive care unit environment. During the year of critical care fellowship training under board certified/eligible intensivists, the fellows will be exposed to a wide range of opportunities allowing them to develop the clinical judgment and master a wide range of skills required for the practice of critical care. Details. |

| Pediatric Anesthesia | ||||||
| The pediatric anesthesia program is devoted to the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative care of the pediatric patient. This subspecialty involves all facets of the surgical spectrum including but not limited to general pediatric surgery, pediatric otolaryngology, pediatric urology, pediatric ophthalmology and pediatric neurosurgery. We also have an active pediatric craniofacial service. Anesthesia services for the pediatric patient in locations outside of the operating room such as the Neonatal ICU, Cardiac Catheterization Lab, MRI suite, CT scan and GI lab are provided as well. Details | ||||||
| Regional Anesthesia | ||||||
| Memorial Hermann Hospital is one of the largest Level One trauma centers in the nation, thereby allowing this regional program to emphasize all aspects of regional anesthesia. The residents are exposed to various types of peripheral nerve blocks, as well as placement of indwelling catheters for postoperative pain management, for both inpatient and outpatient orthopedic surgeries. Current procedural caseloads average 2400 per year. Details. | ||||||

The
Department of Anesthesiology offers an outstanding clinical anesthesia
experience that can be tailored to meet individual educational goals.
You will receive thorough preparation for board certification in anesthesiology,
extensive didactic training, subspecialty training, and clinical and
laboratory
research opportunities. The goal of our fully accredited Residency Program
is to educate physicians in the fundamentals of anesthesia and its related
disciplines.
We aim to
graduate broadly educated, well-rounded practitioners with the abilities
and resources to enter with confidence any aspect of anesthetic practice
they choose. The program offers an intense background in the basic sciences
of physiology, biochemistry and pharmacology, as well as the opportunity
to apply these disciplines to the broad spectrum of clinical practice.
Educational activities are centered in the operating room and classroom,
but also occur at the University Center for Pain Medicine and Rehabilitation
at Hermann, as well as the Shock Trauma Intensive Care Unit at Hermann
Hospital. Clinical exposure to every aspect of anesthetic practice is
provided in Hermann's and LBJ's operating rooms and specialty areas at
Texas Children's
Hospital, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, and the Texas Heart Institute. Applicants
who match with the Categorical Residency will spend their PGY 1 year
satisfying the requirements of the Clinical Base Year by serving as interns
in Internal
Medicine, Internal Medicine/Pediatrics or Pediatrics. Details of training
program and application procedures may be found on the Program's
