Special Features
Our program sits on Chicago's South Side, a large, historically a community with longstanding health disparities. We serve children of University of Chicago faculty, staff, and medical center employees alongside families from the surrounding community, so trainees see patients across a wide range of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. Inpatient training at Highland Park Hospital adds a suburban population, while our Compass partnership provides partial hospitalization in an urban setting. Fellows rotate through specialty clinics in neurodevelopment and autism, eating disorders, trauma, mood and anxiety, and medically complex and somatic care, then train within an academic medical center supporting research.
