The Allergy and Immunology fellowship program at The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) at Galveston is a two-year training accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) program. This is a conjoint program offered by the Allergy & Immunology Division of the Department of Internal Medicine and the Division of Infectious Diseases and Immunology of the Department of Pediatrics.
Started in 1970, UTMB is one of the oldest Allergy and Immunology programs in the country and we have a rich tradition of providing quality patient care, educational excellence and training future leaders in our field. Our fellows are exposed to the large spectrum of allergic and immunologic conditions including hypersensitivity disorders, severe asthma, atopic dermatitis, eosinophilic disorders and immunodeficiencies. The core faculty for this program includes six full-time physicians board-certified in Allergy and Immunology. The core of UTMB's success is its diverse patient population, engaging faculty, investment in quality education and patient care, and a family-friendly atmosphere that make this program an ideal location for fellows to train.
Our clinics are located both in Galveston and off the island in nearby League City. Our fellows also provide care for patients at the Texas Department of Corrections Hospital located on the UTMB campus. These different practice settings provide our fellows with diverse clinical experiences.
Our graduated fellows have successfully pursued careers in both private practice and academic medicine. They have gone on to become leaders in our field and expert clinicians.
I invite you to visit the rest of our website and submit an ERAS application to our program. Thank you for your interest and consideration.
Sincerely,
Jennifer McCracken, MD
