Microsurgery Fellow

Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center

The Division of Surgical Oncology at Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center is actively recruiting a Microsurgery Fellow candidate to start July 2025 in a newly established 12-month, Non-ACGME, multi-campus, Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship program in the Phoenix metropolitan area.

This Fellow will be a part of a national leader in multidisciplinary cancer care, education, and discovery, with an established and growing Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery section lead by a team of renowned microsurgery experts.

This fellowship is tailored to provide advanced postgraduate training, emphasizing microsurgical techniques for reconstructive surgery in cancer patients. Banner MD Anderson stands out as an ideal setting for board-eligible plastic surgeons seeking specialized training in microvascular and complex reconstructive surgery across various cancer types.

The scope of reconstruction encompasses microsurgical and non-microsurgical approaches, spanning breast reconstruction, all aspects of head and neck (dedicated ENT and plastic surgery microsurgical services), extremity, and trunk reconstruction. The fellow can be expected to participate actively in 200-250 free flaps per year and will also gain exposure to super-microsurgery via a comprehensive surgical lymphedema program which includes LV bypass, free VLNT, direct excision/lipo-aspiration, and local pedicle flaps. The fellow will also be involved in the management of melanoma and non-melanoma cutaneous malignancies, including Mohs reconstruction. Ample time and resources are allocated for clinical research, and the fellow will have the opportunity to participate in all educational activities at the MD Anderson Cancer Center micro fellowship in Houston, including a clinical rotation and flap/reconstructive related courses.

BMDACC includes a comprehensive team of experts that comprises many subspecialties. With the support of a fully staffed APP team, the selected candidate will be dedicated to the cancer center and can anticipate a high volume of cancer reconstruction microsurgery training.
