Burn Fellowship Program

The Department of Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center and Parkland Hospital has two fellowship positions available for surgeons interested in advanced burn care. Our one-year ACGME approved Burn/SCC Fellowship allows candidates to be board eligible in surgical critical care and obtain a burn certificate at the completion of their training. Fellows spend six months on the burn service at Parkland Memorial Hospital with exposure to acute and reconstructive burn surgery. An additional three months in various ICU settings including SICU and CVICU. Three months are elective, some choices include anesthesia, PICU, neurocritical care, echocardiography, ECMO and CCU. Fellows also may spend 1-2 months as the chief of our trauma and acute care surgery service where they perform 60-80 cases per month.

The burn service at Parkland Hospital is composed of six faculty members and admits over 900 patients per year, including adult and pediatric patients. The service performs over 600 burn and burn reconstructive cases per year and sees over 3000 patients in our outpatient clinic. It is the only burn center in North Texas verified by the American Burn Association and the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma. Additionally, Parkland Hospital admits over 2,000 trauma patients and performs over 3800 EGS and trauma procedures annually. During the burn component of their year, fellows become proficient in all aspects of burn care and burn reconstructive surgery. This includes acute burn management and resuscitation, inhalation injuries, escharotomies, fasciotomies, skin grafting, amputations, and application of skin substitutes. Training in reconstructive care includes multimodal laser training and reconstructive procedures from local flaps and adjacent tissue rearrangements to pedicle and free tissue transfer. This also includes training for hand specific burn reconstruction. At the completion of the program, fellows are competent in treating all burn patients in the outpatient and inpatient setting.

Opportunities for research exist in basic science, clinical trials, and outcomes. The division is funded by the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Defense, and the American College of Surgeons. Eligible candidates can work on various projects involving heterotopic ossification, muscle fibrosis, tissue regeneration, wound healing, nutrition, burn resuscitation, burn reconstruction outcomes, and quality improvement. Additionally, UTSW is a NIDDLR center for the BMS, allowing fellows to participate in outcomes data and multicenter institutional studies.

Eligible candidates must: (1) Have completed training and holds an M.D. or equivalent degree (2) be board eligible or board certified in General or Plastic Surgery. Selection is based on interviews with UTSW faculty. Requirements for Application: (1) Curriculum Vitae (2) 2 letters of recommendation (3) ABSITE reports.
