Job Summary:
Mary Washington Healthcare provides training, in association and cooperation with its affiliated participating institutions.

The position of FMOB Fellow involves a combination of supervised, progressively more complex and independent patient evaluation and/or management functions, formal educational activities, and research responsibilities. The provision of healthcare and other professional services by the FMOB Fellow is commensurate with their level of advancement and competence, under the general supervision of appropriately privileged attending teaching faculty. FMOB Fellows must meet program-specific training requirements and board eligibility standards in order to successfully complete their program.

Essential Functions and Responsibilities:

  • Participate in the clinical evaluation and care of patients in a variety of patient care settings with sufficient frequency to achieve the competencies required by their discipline under the supervision of attending faculty.
