Welcome to the Kaiser Permanente Hematology and Oncology Fellowship in San Francisco
Kaiser Permanente is one of the nation’s largest integrated health care systems and a leader in the delivery of patient centered and value-based care. In Northern California alone, we care for a diverse population of over 4.6 million members and have more than 130 hematologist/oncologists.
The ACGME-accredited Hematology-Oncology Fellowship at Kaiser Permanente San Francisco is a 36-month long program. Fellows provide patient care within our integrated health system- for a culturally and socioeconomically diverse patient population. Graduates will be compassionate physicians and future leaders in Hematology and Oncology. There is support and mentorship for care delivery and quality improvement-based research. We believe our focus on clinical excellence, broadly applicable clinical research, and joy and meaning in medicine sets our program apart.
Our program provides comprehensive training in the diagnosis and management of solid tumors, malignant and benign hematology with an emphasis on collaboration, palliative care and value-based care.

Fellowship Applications
All applications for the training program will be processed through the ERAS (Electronic Residency Application Service) website. Qualified applicants will be invited for interviews in September and October. The fellowship program participates in the NRMP (National Resident Matching Program). The program is dedicated to recruiting applicants from a broad range of backgrounds and experiences.
Submission of applications through ERAS begins in July. Please refer to the ERAS website for specific dates and instructions. Required application materials include the common application form (CAF), personal statement, minimum of 3 letters of recommendation (at least one must be from your residency program director), ECFMG certification (applicable to graduates of foreign medical schools), a color photo, and USMLE and medical school transcripts. We participate in program signaling. While we preferentially review applications from those who signal our program, we also consider applicants who do not signal.
