The Albert Einstein Medical Center Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship is committed to providing a broad base of advanced training
in the specialty of cardiovascular diseases.
With over 2,000 cardiac and peripheral catheterizations, 862 electrophysiology procedures, 4,800 nuclear stress tests, 8,800
echoes, and
50,000 electrocardiograms performed annually, fellows are provided a wealth of educational opportunities. Einstein's cardiac
facilities include the Minerva and Fred Braemer Heart Center, a state-of-the-art digital catheterization laboratory, a newly
upgraded electrophysiology laboratory and a second new lab with biplane fluoroscopy, intracardiac electrocardiography, Carto
and ESI three-dimensional mapping systems, cardiac CT and MRI, a fully digital electrocardiography laboratory and an outpatient
cardiac center. There is also a spacious, modern CCU and newly renovated Cardiac Telemetry floor. Together these ensure fellows
acquire the consulting expertise and technical skills required of a cardiologist in the 21st Century.
The Division of Cardiovascular Diseases is comprised of 25 full-time and 20 voluntary faculty members. The faculty’s on-going
commitment to research affords fellows ample opportunity to become involved in a variety of clinical investigations.
