In order to remove any potential bias and create a more equitable interview process, SMFM and the Fellowship Affairs Committee request that all fellowship interviews be held virtually.


The Society supports Fellows through educational programs and funding for specialized research and clinical experiences. We welcome first-year fellows to the Society at our annual First Year Fellow Retreat each fall, which brings together veteran MFM specialists and our newest members. Additional resources include:

NEW! MFM SLOE (Standard Letter of Evaluation): The MFM SLOE was designed by the MFM Fellowship affairs committee and approved by the SMFM Board, with the goal of evaluating the key traits important for a successful MFM fellow and MFM provider.

Fellowship Directory A complete list of U.S. based MFM fellowships, interview dates, and program directors.

Fellowship Program Directors Online Community  The online community is a members-only group reserved for Fellowship Program Directors to collaborate, share ideas, discuss fellowship related topics.

Fellowship Program Director Resources This page is for you ! It contains resources shared at the Program Directors Business Meeting, as well as a link for how you can update your program listing with SMFM in the Fellowship Directory.

Online MFM Lecture Series (members only) Our MFM Lecture Series complements the MFM Fellowship Program with a twice-monthly, no-cost webinar featuring leaders in MFM, ultrasound, research, neonatology and genetics.
