Vascular Surgery 5-2 Fellowship
The Division of Vascular Surgery offers a “5+2 year” Independent Vascular Fellowship Program. Residents completing a general surgery residency that are American Board of Surgery Certified or Eligible and who wish to have added qualifications in vascular surgery are eligible to apply. The two-year fellowship offers the complete range of clinical experience including a wide variety of open and endovascular surgery performed in a state of the art hybrid operating room. Rotations include a comprehensive noninvasive vascular laboratory experience to prepare the fellow for the Registered Physician in Vascular Interpretation (RPVI) examination. Opportunities for teaching and clinical research are key components of the training program. The fellowship is designed to produce skilled surgeons who practice evidence-based medicine with a focus on optimizing outcomes and lifelong learning.
General Surgery Residency
The University of Vermont's surgical residency, accredited since 1955, has a history of producing leaders in surgery. Residents gain exposure to diverse open and minimally invasive procedures, preparing them for careers in general surgery or fellowships. Clinical training is enhanced by the University of Vermont Clinical Simulation Laboratory's resources. After their second clinical year, residents engage in a year of research, leading to presentations at national forums and publications in respected journals. The Department of Surgery values the essential role residents play in mentoring and educating medical students.
Neurosurgery Residency
This accredited program graduates one chief resident annually, who often pursues fellowships in pediatric, skull base functional, and spine neurosurgery. We emphasize one-on-one interactions between residents and attendings across diverse surgical areas such as cerebrovascular, spinal, tumor, and pediatric neurosurgery. Our resources include an active cerebrovascular lab and a fully equipped skull base dissection lab. Each year, one resident engages in clinical and basic science projects, contributing to publications and presentations on topics like traumatic brain injury and cerebral blood flow.
