About the Fellowship

This structured one-year program which is in its eight year, offers outstanding opportunities for Fellows to receive practical and operational experience while working within a vast network of physician practices and community medical centers. Fellows play an integral role individualizing their fellowship experience and learning to plan around organizational, professional, and career objectives.

We provide Fellows with coaching and mentoring that enhance leadership and management skills. Previous Fellows and experienced practice managers working within Lexington Medical Center physician practices serve as mentors to guide Fellows through their learning experience. Fellows develop close relationships with their preceptor as well as the executive leadership team during project assignments and practice rotations.

Fellows receive competitive compensation and benefits for the duration of the program. Fellows who successfully complete the program are highly considered for opportunities in practice management within the Lexington Medical Center network of care.
