Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery APP Fellowship

The WakeMed Health and Hospitals APP Fellowship Program is dedicated to the future of medicine and the health of our community by creating highly trained APPs who are capable of providing exceptional and compassionate patient care. We strive to remain at the forefront of medical education, providing APP fellows with a variety of clinical and didactic experiences focused on clinical decision-making, patient safety, technical skills and professionalism that will ensure their ability to excel within their specialties.

WakeMed Heart & Vascular Physicians brings together cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons and vascular surgeons who specialize in heart and vascular disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment. We offer both medical management of disease and the most advanced diagnostics, services and procedures — many of which are minimally invasive.

WakeMed Cardiothoracic surgery is proud to be the first CT surgery program in the United States to be certified in Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS). Our group of cardiothoracic surgeons, vascular surgeons, and thoracic surgeons have worked with advanced practice providers since the 1980’s.
