The Texas Heart Institute^® Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship at Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center was opened in 1965 under the guidance of Dr. Robert Leachman. The fellowship has a rich history of stalwart clinician-educators, and many others, who take tremendous pride in training our fellows. Over the decades, the Texas Heart Institute (THI) cardiology fellowship program has made a name for itself by consistently training outstanding cardiologists who are highly regarded for their clinical skills throughout the cardiology community.

“Our fellows receive hands-on experience from day one of their fellowship. The fellows benefit from excellent procedural volumes and exposure to a wide variety of pathology from the diverse Houston area population. They are exposed to all of the latest technologies available in cardiovascular care including both durable and short-term percutaneous devices, 3D echo, advanced fluoro-less EP studies utilizing 3D mapping systems, and progressive TAVR protocols developed at THI,” added Stephanie Coulter, MD,  Fellowship Program Director.
