Fellowships - Advanced Obstetrics
The Department of Family Medicine provides one position yearly for advanced training in obstetrics. The applicant must have completed a three-year Family Medicine residency in Knoxville. The fellowship provides instruction in operative obstetrics (C-sections and post-partum tubal ligation) and management of pregnancy, labor and delivery for Family Medicine residents interested in providing those services, often in rural areas.
This experience is obtained at UT Medical Center under the direction of the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Family Medicine. Electives during the year are available in newborn nursery, neonatal intensive care, and anesthesiology. Participation in teaching students and residents in the Family Medicine Ambulatory Clinic and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is expected. Back-up and consultation for the Family Medicine obstetric patient population is also provided by the fellow.
