Message from the Program Director

At Jacobi, we are committed to developing compassionate, knowledgeable, and skilled hematology and oncology physicians who are prepared to provide outstanding care to our diverse patient population. Our program combines rigorous clinical training with opportunities for research, teaching, and professional development in a supportive and collaborative environment.

As part of the Albert  Einstein health system, our fellows benefit from exposure to a broad spectrum of malignant and benign hematologic conditions, as well as a diverse range of solid tumors. Our clinical experience is complemented by dedicated faculty mentorship and opportunities to participate in clinical research, quality improvement, and academic activities.

We believe that excellent fellowship training goes beyond medical knowledge. We strive to foster curiosity, compassion, resilience, teamwork, and a lifelong commitment to learning. Our goal is not only to train excellent hematologists and oncologists, but also to support our fellows as they develop into thoughtful physicians, educators, researchers, and leaders.

We are proud of the collegial and inclusive environment at Jacobi and look forward to welcoming physicians who share our commitment to excellence, service, and patient-centered care.
