Penn State Health Pain Medicine Fellowship, 2024-2025
Penn State Hershey Medical Center
Hershey, PA
Candidates for the Anesthesia/Pain Medicine Fellowship must be diplomates in good standing of the ABPMR, ABA or ABPN and apply for subspecialty certification through their respective boards. Diplomates of other ABMS member boards may apply for certification in pain medicine through their board if their board becomes a co-sponsor of the Pain Medicine Examination.
Penn State Health’s Pain Medicine Center utilizes a multidisciplinary, comprehensive approach to manage more than 7,000 outpatient visits per year.
Fellows will spend nine four-week blocks in the Pain Medicine Center. This rotation exposes the fellow to a wide variety of chronic pain conditions and is the true core of the fellowship program. The full spectrum of currently accepted interventional pain management procedures are performed under direct supervision of the faculty. Additionally, an interventional pain management course on an injection phantom occurs in the beginning of the academic year that decreases the learning curve for fluoroscopically guided injections. Early on in their training, fellows are involved in evaluation and treatment of chronic pain patients who are referred to the pain center by both primary care physicians as well as specialists from various fields of medicine.
Our patients are offered a variety of interventional pain procedures including spinal cord stimulator trials and implants, minimally invasive lumbar decompression, sacroiliac joint fusion interspinous spacer implants, peripheral nerve stimulation, dorsal root ganglion stimulation, epidural steroid injections, radiofrequency ablation, sacroiliac joint injections, peripheral nerve blocks, and others.
The strong didactic program consists of weekly lectures, monthly journal clubs, case presentations, monthly spine rounds, two annual OSCEs with simulation, interventional sessions with simulation, fluoroscopic case presentations, quarterly multidisciplinary patient comfort conferences and daily patient-related teaching.
Fellow education is centered on three major areas:
Acquiring comprehensive knowledge of diagnosis and treatment of the more chronic pain conditions
Becoming proficient with a wide variety of interventional pain management procedures
Providing an overview of the information required to become a consultant in pain management and preparing for the subspecialty board examination
Fellows are on home call one week in four, on average. During call, the fellows will be exposed to consultative care of inpatients with chronic pain conditions. In addition, they will work with regional anesthesia teams.
Please send all applicant documents to email listed below.
