The U of C teaching facility is a 500+ bed hospital with 100+ intensive care unit beds. Our Illinois Department of Health Level-1 Trauma Center opened on May 1st, 2018. The Surgical Critical Care Fellowship was subsequently established in 2021. Our Fellowship provides exposure to every medical and surgical subspecialty within the institution. Additionally, it gives our Fellows the opportunity to collaborate with other trainees in Anesthesia, Medicine, Pulmonary and Neuro-Critical Care, Ethics, and medical education. Aside from a strong clinical basis, our Fellows’ practices will be rooted in knowledge of disparities in healthcare and in interdisciplinary teamwork.
