Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, the flagship academic center of the Advocate Health system, offers two one-year Fellowship/Instructor Positions in Surgical Pathology annually.
Our active academic surgical pathology department processes approximately 45,000 general surgical specimens each year. Fellows gain exposure to a wide range of subspecialties and have the option to focus on specific areas of interest. They also participate in external consultations and interinstitutional consensus conferences to review complex cases.
Instructor Responsibilities include:
- Signing out surgical cases
- Performing frozen section diagnoses
- Leading tumor board conferences
- Subspecialty-Based Sign-Out Program
The program offers extensive training in general surgical pathology, with a strong emphasis on breast, gynecologic, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, ENT, and lung pathology.
Fellows can expect 6-9 months of progressive, independent sign-out, followed by 3 months of elective rotations to further explore their subspecialty interests.
We offer a flexible schedule, a competitive salary, and a supportive, collaborative work environment. Fellows also have the opportunity to engage in research and contribute to our transition to digital pathology.
