Welcome to the Pediatric Residency program and the Vermont Children’s Hospital located within the University of Vermont Medical Center.
As you explore the University of Vermont pediatric residency program at UVM Medical Center, you will find that we are a wonderful small academic department and program.
Sound like an oxymoron? Well, in fact, we enjoy the best features of both size and our academic setting: a personal, friendly environment in a place where each person is known, and where each person can truly make a difference to the educational program, and to the children and families we serve.
Nationally Recognized Faculty, Dedicated to Your Education
We enjoy all the best features of an excellent academic program - a nationally recognized faculty with a variety of clinical expertise, who are invested in the education of our residents, as well as in research and excellent patient care; a talented group of residents whose academic and clinical skills flourish through their three years of residency, and a leadership team dedicated to the success of each of our graduates.
Residents in our pediatric residency program come from a variety of backgrounds and have different, often evolving career goals. During the pediatrics residency, they have an opportunity to use their unique skills to strengthen their own education and impact the whole residency team. Working as a group or individually, our residents are encouraged to be creative participants in the continual reassessment and development of curriculum, quality improvement projects and community based advocacy.
During the three years of pediatric residency, our residents become excellent clinicians. They also acquire advocacy and quality improvement skills which allow them to develop and apply new knowledge to improve the clinical care of patients as well as to improve the Medical Home neighborhood in which that health care is given.
Our residents leave here and go throughout the country to be part of competitive subspecialty fellowships and primary care practices. We hope that you will want to find out more about our pediatric residency program, please contact us or submit an application.
Sincerely,
