FELLOWSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM

Department of Internal Medicine
Section of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism – Fellowship Training Program in Endocrinology

The fellowship training program in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism of Chong Hua Hospital is the first and only fellowship training outside Metro Manila. It started in 2014 and was given full 4 years of accreditation the year after, and eventually was fully reaccredited in 2019.

Since its inception, the Chong Hua Hospital Section of Endocrinology has been committed to providing flexibility in structuring the fellowship program to meet the educational needs and career aspirations of the fellows. The two-year program provides a broad range of clinical experience in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism, along with workshops and hands-on experience in ultrasound-guided biopsy of thyroid nodules. We also offer a wide array of elective rotations to meet individual preferences, including preceptorial rotations in pediatric endocrinology, retina, nutrition, and obesity clinics, wound care clinics, pathology, and radiology departments which includes an in-depth teaching on nuclear scans.

Despite the challenges brought about by the pandemic, Chong Hua Hospital, in providing an enriching holistic environment for the fellows in training, has successfully opened the Diabetes, Thyroid, and Metabolic Center in 2021. Since the practice of endocrinology and metabolism is predominantly outpatient, in nature, we expanded our hub for outpatient consultations initially in Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center and currently in Cebu City Medical Center, to make sure our Fellows have adequate experience in ambulatory care. The section Is also active in the society’s advocacies, particularly in research and awareness programs, and fellows are encouraged to publish their research outputs in both national and international journals.

True to its mission of producing quality graduates, the Section has a 100% passing rate for board-certifying examinations since its establishment. Currently, the graduates are serving the Visayas and Mindanao areas where access to an endocrinologist is scarce. The section currently accepts 2 to 3 fellows each year to continue its thrust in providing excellent quality care in the field of endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism, especially in the VisMin area.

FELLOWSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM

Department of Internal Medicine
Section of Cardiology – Fellowship Training Program in Echocardiography

The first subspecialty in Adult Cardiology, the Fellowship Training in Echocardiography was established in 2018. The subspecialty program was created to provide a comprehensive and solid foundation of knowledge and clinical experience in the field of Echocardiography to its trainee. As part of the Section of Adult Cardiology under the Department of Internal Medicine, it also allows its fellows to work harmoniously with the trainees of the Adult Cardiology and IM department with its other subspecialties. Through effective teaching, mentoring, personal guidance and adequate clinical exposure, the training program strives to produce skilled, competent and compassionate Adult Echocardiographers who will eventually become valuable members of the Philippine Society of Echocardiography and the community.

Whereas the Chong Hua Hospital Heart Institute is committed to the advancement of the practice of Cardiovascular Medicine in general, the Fellowship Training in Adult Echocardiography sets these guidelines which are in compliance with the standards set by the PSE-PHA Philippine Core Curriculum for Specialty Training in Adult Echocardiography. The one-year Adult Echocardiography Fellowship at Chong Hua Hospital aims to teach clinical research fellows and transform them into tomorrow’s leaders in academic and clinical echocardiography. Our program provides training in all aspects of echocardiography in a supportive, collegial and stimulating environment. The training program also envisions to produce echocardiographers who will maintain a culture of continuous education in the advances in the field of echocardiography while remaining compassionate and with uncompromising ethical and moral integrity, all of which are aligned with Chong Hua Hospital’s creed of “Healing with Passion, Caring with Compassion”.

The Adult Echocardiography Training Program aims to develop clinically skilled, ethical and compassionate Echocardiographers who will become excellent clinicians, diagnostic specialist, mentors and respectable leaders in all aspects of this chosen field of interest.
