Endocrinology fellows participate in the following clinics at these hospitals and satellite clinics. At each rotation the residents/fellows will learn about Diabetes Mellitus and General Endocrinology. However, depending upon the site of training, especially in relation to the uniqueness of the patient population, the interest and expertise of the faculties or the availability of the facilities, there would be different stress on different areas within the curriculum. :

During continuity clinics, fellows see their own patients to provide them with continuing care experience with a wide variety of patient population. These clinics are supervised by attending physicians and the fellows' experience is evaluated semi annually.

Fellows coordinate the inpatient endocrinology consultation services on a rotation basis at Millard Fillmore Hospital, Erie County Medical Center and the Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Fellows work under the supervision of an endocrinology faculty member at each institution.

Endocrinology fellows are on-call at home on a rotating basis at night and over the weekend for emergencies at Millard Fillmore Hospital, Erie County Medical Center and the Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
