The direct entry five year residency training program in Vascular Surgery at Western University accepted its first residents in 2012. The Division of Vascular Surgery is dedicated to this new paradigm of training and look forward to meeting this year’s applicants.
The program at Western University provides exceptional clinical and academic opportunities for residents to develop and prepare for satisfying and successful careers in academic or community vascular surgery.
Our hybrid operating suite and fusion imaging technology has enhanced our current endovascular capabilities. We remain dedicated to both open surgery and endovascular training, and continue to develop our approach to cutting edge aortic and peripheral endovascular techniques. We believe that our strong commitment to resident education, extremely high clinical volumes, and unlimited research opportunities make Western University an outstanding program to consider for residency training.
The strengths of our program include the small and dedicated group of Faculty and the large clinical volume encompassing all aspects of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery. Our trainees are extremely well trained and immediately capable of practicing modern day vascular surgery in an academic or community setting upon graduation.
The Program has a strong academic focus with a robust formal teaching program and an internationally renowned research track record.
Graduates of our program are held in high regard internationally and upon graduation are consistently approached and recruited for various academic and community positions.
Please contact the program director Dr. John Landau with any further questions.
We would be pleased to provide additional information that may be helpful when considering the Vascular Surgery training program at Western University.
