Additional Information about Program

Through our program the interventional fellow will receive a wide array of clinical and endoscopic experience. We are recruiting a 3rd interventional endoscopist. However, the 2 current advanced endoscopists practice the entire gamut of advanced endoscopy procedures. There is strong focus in 3rd space endoscopy and endoscopic surgery under the leadership of program director, Dr. Stavropoulos. The endobariatric compomnent is under development but expected to be online by 2027-2028. The ERCP/EUS/pancreato-biliary portion of the program, led by Dr. Bhanu Singh will expand further with the recruitment of a 3rd advanced endoscopist in the coming year.
