More amazing news from the Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship program! Our inaugural graduating class had a 100% cardiology board pass rate! You can read more about them here.

Additionally, the fellowship boasts a 100% match rate for interventional cardiology fellowships! Two of our 2024 fellows matched, as well as our chief fellow Dr. Fardeen Faiz.

Preparing our future cardiologists for excellence is what we do!

“Seeing our fellows achieve a 100% board pass rate and a 100% interventional cardiology match rate is incredibly gratifying. It reflects the culture of excellence we’ve built, where faculty are deeply invested, and fellows are driven to push themselves. This is the type of success that doesn’t just elevate our program; it positions us nationally as a place where future cardiology leaders are truly developed.” – Program Director, Dr. Ugochukwu Egolum

Dr. Faiz matched into the interventional cardiology fellowship at ECU!
Dr. Dodoo and Dr. Dixit both matched into interventional cardiology fellowships in 2024.
