About the Fellowship
Our ACGME-accredited program in Critical Care Medicine is open to graduates of internal medicine residency programs. Fellowship is two years in length, and fellows are expected to sit for the ABIM Critical Care Medicine boards at the completion of training. The two primary training sites are Froedtert Hospital, a large 536-bed tertiary care referral center and one of Vizient’s top 10 academic medical centers, and the Zablocki VA Medical Center, one of the premiere VA clinical sites in the country.
