Current and Former Fellows

We expect that on completion of our fellowship training our fellow will possess the tools to be an outstanding minimally invasive surgeon and a future academic leader. The MCW fellowship offers a true academic experience and our fellows successfully transition to specialty-specific practices as surgeons advancing the field of minimally invasive surgery and bariatrics.
