Integrated Vascular Surgery Residency

The five-year program is designed to provide trainees with a comprehensive core surgical experience at Houston Methodist Hospital. Residents rotate on the vascular surgery services of Houston Methodist Hospital and several community-based Houston Methodist hospitals. Our program offers an unparalleled clinical volume, dedication to mentorship, and a commitment to developing skilled clinicians. Our residents work with both vascular surgery faculty as well as cardiac surgery faculty, leading to a more robust operative experience. The research focus of our department includes industry sponsored trials, investigational devices, and basic science. Although a dedicated research year is not required, research is encouraged and those with research interests are supported. Our residents are exposed to a wide variety of vascular pathologies and leave the program with a rich open and endovascular experience. We pride ourselves in having equal clinical volume between open and endovascular procedures. Graduates are well prepared to confidently manage and treat the totality of vascular pathologies including those of arterial, venous and lymphatic systems. Our graduates complete their training with confidence in their surgical and clinical abilities and have succeeded in both academic and private practices.
