Available Fellowship Positions

Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Medical Center
Richmond, Virginia

Our fellowship program provides training and mentorship with 3 MS-fellowship trained physicians in a supportive and individualized program tailored to the unique personal & professional goals of each fellow individually. Based in Richmond, VA we provide care to a diverse patient population.

Fellows train in both the outpatient and inpatient care and management of MS and MS-related disorders, as well as participate in MS therapeutic trials and other clinical research. There is also ample opportunity to participate in bench research for interested fellows.

Care and management of patients living with MS and Related disorders require multidisciplinary care, and VCU fellows will have the opportunity to work with our colleagues in fields such as PM&R, urology/urogynecology, ophthalmology, neuroradiology, and PT/OT.

The program provides a flexible learning environment to meet the unique interests of fellows, including a second year to pursue independent research projects in clinical, translational or basic science. Click here for more information.
