In the last 5 years we have had 100% Board Pass Rate on the National Board of Echocardiography exam which fellows have taken at the start of their third year in fellowship.

Fellows are also given full access the American College of Cardiology’s Cardiosource Plus for Institutions which is the premier cardiovascular online portal providing immediate and convenient access to cutting-edge cardiovascular information PLUS unlimited access to ACC’s full complement of online educational programs which is the single most authoritative and comprehensive professional resource on cardiovascular.
