Rising MS3 here — recently decided to pursue Urology. One big draw is the opportunity to follow / treat cancer patients as a part of my practice. I noticed that oncology fellowships out there seemed to have a mandatory research year, making them 2 years— do one year fellowships exist? The thought of 7 years of post graduate training gives me pause. I’ve always approached research as a means to an end and don’t have a passion for it.
What procedures does an oncology fellowship open up compared to a well trained PP general urologist? Are there other one-year clinical fellowships that could serve as alternatives to going the oncology fellowship route?
thanks for any guidance / clarification!
