Fellowship details

Our one-year fellowship provides comprehensive advanced training in a high-acuity, high-volume clinical environment. Located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, a major referral centre serving a large and diverse catchment area, fellows benefit from exposure to a broad spectrum and large volume of pathology across our two main tertiary sites, offering ample opportunities to develop diagnostic and procedural expertise.

Multidisciplinary training

Fellows receive hands-on training across multiple ultrasound applications, including advanced cardiac imaging, critical care ultrasound, TEE, MSK ultrasound, and regional anesthesia.

Clinical training occurs in varied settings with significant pathology breadth and is supported by a large group of fellowship-trained faculty dedicated to high-quality ultrasound education and mentorship.

Academic activities

Fellows participate in weekly ultrasound case rounds and structured didactic sessions, and are actively involved in teaching residents, medical students and faculty. 

We encourage and support fellows to explore their tailored interests within POCUS (e.g., medical education, critical care, regional anesthesia) by organizing electives and dedicated time within these areas.

Fellow experiences

Graduates of the program are well equipped for careers in academic medicine, ultrasound leadership and advanced point-of-care ultrasound practice.
