Medical Student/Resident Resources

Vascular Surgery Interest Groups (VSIG) promote vascular-related research and service activities to students early in their medical career and assist students as they seek valuable career mentorship.

There are ACGME-accredited vascular surgery training programs (both integrated residency and fellowship programs) across New England.

In 2006, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) approved the Primary Certificate in Vascular Surgery which eliminates the requirement for certification in general surgery prior to certification in vascular surgery. This creates more than one training pathway.
