Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship Program Interviews featuring Alison Carey, MD, Division Chief, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine; Anja Mowes, MD, PhD, Director, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship Program; Novisi Arthur, MD, Neonatology Fellow Third Year.

The neonatologist in the future needs to have a strong clinical foundation to continue learning and practicing medicine during the exciting changes that will occur during the 21st century. Our fellows practice at different NICUs (level III/IV). Care is provided for all types of patients ranging from normal deliveries to critically ill newborns who are transferred to our hospital requiring complex surgery or ECMO. We believe that using evidence-based medicine and understanding research techniques and strategies will provide tools for the candidate to understand the medical literature and to develop approaches to answer new questions to advance the care of newborns.

The fellowship training program in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine is a three-year program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). There is full salary support for all three years. Dr. Alison Carey is Director of the Division of Neonatology and Dr. Vilmaris Quinones Cardona is the training Program Director. Our program accepts three first-year fellows each year.
