Administrative Fellowship
About the Program
Applicants must be graduates of an ACGME-accredited Emergency Medicine residency program and be board eligible or board certified in Emergency Medicine. A Georgia medical license and DEA registration are also required prior to the start of the fellowship.
The ApolloMD Emergency Medicine Administrative Fellowship is a two-year program for recent EM residency graduates that combines mentorship, executive collaboration, and hands-on experience in administration, quality, risk management, research, and operations. Fellows work closely with ApolloMD and Wellstar leadership while concurrently completing an Executive MBA at Kennesaw State, Georgia State, or the University of Georgia.
The administrative fellow will join the emergency department leadership team, receive mentorship from the Fellowship Program Director and ED Medical Directors, and develop toward a future role as Assistant Medical Director.
The fellowship includes enrollment in an Executive MBA program through Kennesaw State University, Georgia State University, or the University of Georgia, as well as participation in the Wellstar Physician Leadership Academy during the second year. Fellows also take part in national and organizational conferences, including the ACEP Scientific Assembly (with involvement in recruitment and interviews during year two), the ACEP ED Directors Academy, the ACEP Leadership and Advocacy Conference, and the ApolloMD Leadership Conference.
