Main ContentOverview and How to Apply
Our Digestive Diseases Fellowship Program offers a broad range of educational opportunities as the only GI fellowship in the state of Mississippi. We offer quaternary care services in the areas of advanced endoscopy, transplant hepatology, inflammatory bowel disease, and gastrointestinal motility. These areas of specialty have a strong basis in practice of general GI, hepatology, and standard endoscopy services. We also have an affiliation with the G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery VA Medical Center, providing the fellows exposure to additional inpatient and outpatient experiences with veterans. Due to the volume and variety of patients encountered in our hospitals, our fellows gain expertise in clinical management and endoscopy skills as they learn core elements necessary for successful independent or academic practice in gastroenterology.

- Excellent exposure to all types of GI pathology as the only quaternary care hospital in the state
