Submit your comment about your experience as a resident:
"The diversity of the patients we see truly enhances our training. We are fortunate not only to work in a county hospital, but to work in an amazing children's hospital with full tertiary support."
"I've had the opportunity to practice general pediatrics with a private pediatrician in the community. This has been one of the best experiences of residency. It has shown me a different side of pediatrics and helped me make a decision about my career after residency."
"I can share ideas and opinions about my training at our monthly housestaff meetings. We also voice resident issues through chief residents and the housestaff president who attend all weekly meetings with our program directors. Our curriculum committee, with resident representatives, continually strives to improve our program and educational experiences."
"We have exposure to all the pediatric subspecialties. When I have a question regarding patient care, it's nice to go to the ultimate authority on the subject. I have found the faculty to be friendly and approachable on both a professional and personal basis."
"During medical school, I made a commitment to doing research on domestic violence. At this program, I was able to find a mentor well versed on the topic, who let me design a study from the beginning to end at my own pace. The advice and guidance was there any time that I needed it."
"The program rotations give a wonderful mix of critical care pediatrics, hospital wards, and ambulatory pediatric clinics. The emphasis on exposure to all areas of pediatrics, including rotations specifically in well baby care, developmental and adolescent pediatrics, makes me feel well prepared for private practice in general pediatrics."
