StemCell Therapy

The objective of the Integrative Medicinefellowship is not to train conventional practitioners to fully practice a CAM discipline. It is, rather, to create a practitioner who is knowledgeable enough about integrative care to function as a skilled guide/adviser to the patient and a collaborative member of multidisciplinary and integrative patient care teams - one who can work effectively with both CAM and conventional practitioners.

The fellowship provides a year's intensive exploration of clinical, educational and research activities related to integrative medicine for MDs or DOs who have satisfactorily completed their residency training.Although fellowship candidates need not be experienced in integrative medicine, they must have shown a recent documentable interest in the field (courses taken, conferences attended, self-paced learning, clinical experiences, etc.).

Fellows will average two days a week in clinical care at integrative clinics, two days in educational pursuits related to integrative medicine, and one day on research in integrative medicine. With the approval of the program director, this schedule can be revised to meet a fellow's individual educational goals.

Fellows will contribute to the continuous quality improvement of the program by helping to build a library of case studies and teaching materials, by performing research, and by giving feedback on the program itself at the end of their fellowship year.
