About the program
During the past three decades, the magnitude of research and development in the field of cardiac in investigational techniques (invasive and noninvasive) and management plans have developed with a fast pace. Since the establishment of the College of Medicine at king Saud University (KSU) in the year 1389 A. H. (1969 A.D., the number of medical graduates has increased significantly. These graduates have been absorbed by various departments and subspecialities, some of whom have become pioneers in their fields and have achieved international reputations especially in the fields of cardiology and cardiac surgery. The facilities provided in these two fields and the standard of care of cardiac patients at King Khalid University Hospital, King Faisal Specialits Hospital and Riyadh Armed Forces Hospital in Riyadh are equivalent to other teaching hospitals of international reputation.
Till recently, Saudi doctors used to go abroad for subspecialty training in cardiology. However, the increasing need for Saudi cardiologists and the established international recognition of the above-mentioned hospitals created the demand for a fellowship program to provide subspeciality training in cardiology to a level that will enable the holder of its diploma to discharge the duties as a consultant cardiologist.
The Fellowship Program in Cardiology has now commenced at King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh, in liaison with other accredited and/or affiliated hospitals. This program is approved by King Saud University Council.
