Education

The one-year Stanford Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry (CLP) Fellowship Program offers advanced training in the field of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry in both hospital and ambulatory settings with abundant clinical, educational, and innovative research opportunities. The Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry Fellowship received full accreditation by the American Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) since its inception in 2010.

The program allows the fellow to engage in a variety of required and elective clinical and research rotations as well as to engage in a wide variety of educational activities where the fellow can serve as a learner and as an educator. The program also allows each CLP-Fellow to develop his or her own unique strengths and interests. Every member of our core faculty is either CLP-Board Certified or eligible.

Fellows can choose a fellowship curriculum that confers them excellent training in General Consultation Liaison Psychiatry, but it also offers two optional sub-specialty tracks: Critical Care Psychiatry or Psychosocial Oncology (also known as Psycho-oncology). 

Our division offers clerkship opportunities including PSYC 353A: Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry Service and PSYC 321A: Psycho-Oncology Clerkship. 

Our division offers several visiting opportunities including unpaid Visiting Faculty/Instructors/Scholars and Visiting Observers who may watch patient care under strict supervision and restrictions. We also offer Visiting Resident electives for eligible medical graduates, availability dependent on scheduling.
