This program blends structured didactic education with supervised clinical practice, fostering confidence, autonomy, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Advanced Practitioner Fellows work closely with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care in fast-paced, high acuity environments.
