We strive to provide fellows a balanced educational experience that will successfully prepare them for independent clinical practice and board certification in Sleep Medicine.
Fellows are in clinic for approximately three days a week where they evaluate both adult and pediatric patients. The other two days of the week are spent interpreting sleep studies under staff supervision and in dedicated academic time. Fellows also spend time in the following additional clinical experiences with the option for additional time if desired:
-
Myotonic dystrophy clinic
-
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-i)
-
Sleep surgery with otolaryngology
-
Oral appliances with hospital dentistry
Additional clinical experiences in pulmonary medicine are available and can be coordinated.
Fellows are given time to prepare for and take the required Sleep Medicine In-Training Exam (SMITE) in the spring.
