Welcome to the Web site for our one-year, Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), approved Vascular Fellowship at the UF College of Medicine-Jacksonville. In addition to this training program, and the ACGME-approved Neurology Residency, the UF College of Medicine-Jacksonville sponsors additional residency and fellowship programs.

The Vascular Neurology Fellowship Training Program is a diverse, competency-based curriculum which combines broad clinical experience with exposure to interventional neuroradiology and neurosonology. Opportunities for fellows to conduct independent clinical research and participate in clinical trials are present as well.

The fellows’ inpatient rotations and outpatient stroke clinic are conducted at Shands Jacksonville Neuroscience Institute, which is a JCAHO Certified Stroke Center. Rural areas of north Florida and southeast Georgia, incorporating 12 counties are linked to our Stroke Center by a helicopter air ambulance service.

Thank you for your interest in our fellowship program.
