Fellowships
Gundersen is one of the nation's premier regional academic health centers training the next generation of healthcare professionals. Here, we deliver superior patient care with a personal touch. As a fellow, you will also. You’ll grow here as you learn from our world-class physicians and hands-on experience in our teaching hospital so that you’re ready to deliver superior patient care.
Excellence in medical education
We embed graduate medical education into the world-class care we provide to a half million patients in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa. More than 100 residents and fellows choose our accredited programs each year to pursue education and excellence and graduate prepared to teach, lead and deliver superior patient care. With dedicated faculty and relentless support, you’ll engage in hands-on learning and research initiatives that will change patient care.
Your experience
We’re renowned for preparing confident and competent clinicians. We earned our reputation by offering low learner-to-teacher ratios, direct access to program directors, and attention to your own health and well-being in a clinical learning environment built on collaboration and trust. As you learn how to become the care giver your patients desire, we’ll provide space to prioritize your mind and body wellness, and reach the work-life balance you need.
