It seeks to provide you, as a resident, with comprehensive, excellent curriculum in general pediatrics and pediatric subspecialties. Questions Training Training is three years in length with a fourth year offered as chief resident. As residents progress through the program, varied experiences are available in both general pediatrics and elective pediatric subspecialties. Each year house officers assume more supervisory responsibility. We also offer an unique opportunity to pursue a four-year program combining pediatrics with internal medicine.
Graduates are board eligible in both specialties.
Return to top of the page Environment Formal learning takes place through daily interaction between faculty and residents during patient rounds, lectures, conferences, and case presentations. Conferences involved staff from all three hospitals via teleconferencing and Internet broadcasting. House officers have a unique opportunity to work in a variety of private pediatricians' offices as part of the training program. These physicians volunteer to instruct house officers by providing a community clinic setting for rotations and continuity clinics. Residents will work closely with our nationally and internationally renowned faculty to complete their research projects.
