The Stanford Hypertension fellowship is a one-year program that provides comprehensive training to fellows who desire a sub-specialization in Hypertension. 

Hypertension is a multifactorial disease, with consequences for multiple organ systems (cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease, for example). At Stanford, we have modeled the Hypertension Center on a multi-disciplinary approach to this condition, and we have systematically involved members of multiple stake-holder departments/divisions from Stanford Health Care, in our didactic conferences.  These include Cardiology, Endocrinology, Nephrology, Stroke Medicine, Neurology/Autonomic disorders, Sleep Medicine, Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, and Vascular and Endocrine Surgery. 

The educational experiences of the Hypertension Fellowship include a combination of core curriculum lectures, case conferences, grand rounds, and outpatient & inpatient rotations with interdisciplinary teams to allow a true, 360-degree approach to this condition.

Eligibility: 

• The individual to be trained must be a citizen or a noncitizen national of the United States or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence at the time of appointment. 
• A minimum of an internal medicine or family medicine residency completion is required for participation in this fellowship.
• The individual to be training will be required to have a Physician’s and Surgeon’s California Medical License on their start date.

Compensation: The salary for this position is $102,276.80/year plus benefits. Learn more about the benefits Stanford offers here.
