Our graduates are routinely sought out for top positions in both clinical and research institutions in the region and around the nation.

Endocrinology/Metabolism

The department's three-year program consists of two equally important arms: a strong, broad-based clinical education, and an in-depth research experience - either clinical or basic. The first year is nearly 100% clinical. Fellows work in multiple outpatient clinics, and also see inpatients on the consultation service. In contrast, the second and third years of the program are primarily research-based, with fellows spending approximately 20% of their time seeing patients, and the remaining 80% performing state-of-the-art research with one of the many talented scientists at the University of Rochester.
