I wonder what would have happened had I not attended that lecture; it was the only one from a Vascular Medicine specialist in my 7 years of training (medical school and residency). For trainees, including medical students, residents, and fellows, we can present important curriculum topics, such as diagnosis and management of peripheral artery disease or venous thromboembolism. Despite the presence of the significant burden of vascular diseases in the United States, diagnosis and treatment of these disorders remain suboptimal.[1] This is exacerbated by an inadequate number of practicing vascular medicine specialists, driven by a small number of formal training programs, lack of Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accreditation and American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) certification.[2] Top priorities of the Society for Vascular Medicine (SVM) include increasing the number of vascular medicine fellowship programs and formalizing recognition of vascular medicine as a specialty.
