The Gastroenterology Fellowship program is a three-year program that provides the opportunity for trainees to achieve cognitive knowledge and procedural skills, develop interpersonal skills, professionalism, cultivate humanistic attitudes, ethical behaviors and gain supervised practical experience as a consultant in treating a wide range of clinical problems- acute and chronic- in varied patient populations (different ethnicities, age groups, socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds). During the three-year fellowship, clinical and research experience will be spent at the principal affiliate and sponsoring institution Robert Wood Johnson Medical School/RWJ University Hospital, with dedicated clinical rotations at the University Hospital/Rutgers New Jersey Medical School (NJMS) and the Veterans Affairs Health Care System. Fellows also actively participate in student and resident training.

Educational conferences are held on a regular basis and all fellows participate actively in the planning and participation of these conferences.
