Hi all,
I'm a resident interested in cardiology. After a lot of reading, it seems like the undisputed "top tier" fellowships for those interested in an academic career would include Hopkins, Duke, MGH, UCSF, and for those interested in private practice, places like CCF and THI (understanding that "top tier" is very subjective, and a lot of other programs probably should/could be included). I'm wondering what programs would fall into that "next tier" category of being strong programs with great training that maybe don't get as much hype as those listed above. I'm more interested in clinically-oriented programs that prepare you well for private practice, but would really like to hear opinions for both types of programs. Couldn't find another thread that discusses this all in one space. Thanks!
