The University of Cincinnati College of Medicine Department of Family & Community Medicine (UCDFCM) is proud to offer an Oncology Primary Care and Survivorship Fellowship for physicians interested in becoming leaders in the field of cancer survivorship and providing primary care services for patients with a history of cancer.
The fellowship program is one year in length and focuses on providing primary care services to cancer survivors, taking into account how their cancer diagnosis and treatment impacts their long-term health. Graduating fellows will be prepared to serve as leaders in cancer survivorship in academic or community settings.
This is a non-ACGME-accredited fellowship in which the Fellow is appointed as an entry-level faculty member in the UCDFCM. The fellow will provide care to individuals with active cancer, a history of cancer or a cancer hereditary syndrome in the Oncology Primary Care clinic at the University of Cincinnati Cancer Center. Fellows will additionally rotate with other target specialties including cardio-oncology, onco-nephrology, and onco-psychiatry. Additionally, fellows will spend time at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Cancer Survivorship Program to learn how to care for survivors of childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancers. One half-day of time will additionally be protected for the fellow to pursue research/projects of interest.
