Program Director's Welcome

Welcome to the Infectious Diseases Fellowship Program at Orlando Health, proudly accredited since 2008. We are delighted that you are considering advancing your career in the beautiful city of Orlando.

Our fellowship offers extensive training opportunities at Orlando Health Orlando Regional Medical Center as well as our other hospital locations throughout Central Florida including Orlando Health Dr. P. Phillips Hospital, Orlando Health - Health Central Hospital, and Orlando Health Jewett Orthopedic Institute, supporting a well-rounded clinical experience. 

Our fellows work alongside our faculty members and actively manage patients on our general consult along with internal medicine, cardiovascular, surgery, trauma, orthopedics and neurological/neurosurgical subspecialty consult services as well as bone marrow transplant services. In addition to this clinical experience, our fellows are also on the forefront of educating other graduate medical education professionals including medical students as well as residents from our other medical, surgical and pharmacy residency programs. We pride ourselves on being a largely clinically focused program. There is, however, plenty of opportunity to dive into research projects, and partake in our Division's Antimicrobial Stewardship and Infection Control Committee along with our excellent ID Pharmacy group.

Our experienced faculty is dedicated to mentoring and guiding you throughout this journey. They bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise, fostering an environment of learning, innovation, and compassionate patient care. Each rotation is meticulously crafted to provide in-depth knowledge and practical exposure, ensuring that you develop a robust clinical and research skill set.

Orlando, known for its vibrant culture and sunny climate, offers an ideal setting for your professional and personal growth. You will not only benefit from top-tier medical training but also enjoy a high quality of life in a city that is both exciting and welcoming.

We look forward to welcoming you to our program and supporting your path to becoming a leader in the field of Infectious Diseases.

Warm regards,

Patricia Couto, MD FIDSA
