These world-class hospital affiliations (listed below) provide the GI fellow with exposure not only to a large and diverse population, but also to a faculty renowned in gastrointestinal and liver diseases.

The McGovern Medical School at UTHealth GI Program is a three-year clinical fellowship with research. First-year fellows are accepted to the program each year. Each fellow will have a basic core curriculum involving rotations at each of the affiliated facilities.
