Where Our Mission Meets Your Calling
Our Urology APP Fellowship Program will help you become highly skilled in the evidence-based management of urology patients and will provide a deeper understanding of the urology field and whole-person care.
Nationwide, there is a growing demand for educated and compassionate advanced practice providers. We’re dedicated to meeting that need by providing 12-month post-graduate fellowships for nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
As we follow our mission of Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ, we are committed to growing the clinical, academic and patient experience skills you’ll need to succeed as part of the next generation of APPs at AdventHealth. Our fellowship program is a dedicated year of training and education to prepare you for your role as an advanced practice provider.
Grow Your Skills in Urology
Urology is a rewarding and challenging medical specialty that encompasses a unique blend of inpatient and outpatient care as well as surgical intervention. APPs interested in this field will work in multiple settings alongside a multidisciplinary team of health care professionals using advanced technologies and treatments to diagnose and manage this diverse population of patients.
The field of urology involves caring for patients with a wide range of conditions, from kidney stones and urologic cancers to voiding dysfunction and recurrent UTIs.
Urology APPs should be prepared to bring professionalism and compassion to a field that is in demand due to an aging population with an increasing prevalence of urologic issues. This program is ideal for individuals who are passionate about providing exemplary care to patients who are dealing with vulnerable conditions and commonly require a multifaceted approach to care. Urology offers multiple subspecialties as well as a work-life balance that’s not always possible in other surgical fields.
