Comment 1:[]
Quoted from Studentdoctor.net pathology forum (user: valtrex):
"Regarding the Caris GI pathology fellowship, it is actually more well-rounded than most people would think.
Caris gets a decent amount of general surgical pathology cases(breast, prostate, bladder, soft tissue, you name it), which the fellow is able to as much or as little as they want to.
6 weeks of the fellowship is spent with a hospital-based private practice group in the Dallas area which has very active pancreatic surgeons and liver transplant service...... all of which the fellow is integrated into.
2 weeks of the fellowship can be spent at the VA hospital in Dallas, spending time in the endoscopy suites
Caris also has a relationship with UT-Southwestern and the fellow spends 1/2 day each week their attending the clinical GI and Liver conferences, as well as any interesting conferences the UTSW pathology dept. puts on." [1]
"...........the GI fellowship is much more than just signing out mucosal biopsies all day." [1]
