Special Features
CCHMC and the Division of Human Genetics offer a 4-year Combined Pediatrics/Genetics Residency. Applications for this program are accepted only through the NRMP/ERAS system. In addition to the Division of Human Genetics your application will also be considered by the CCHMC Department of Pediatrics, but you can only be ranked by one program. If you apply to both programs in the Main Residency Match, you will be asked to choose before you are considered for interviews. The genetics continuity clinic starts in year 1 (internship) along withthe pediatric continuity program they are held equally often and teh total number of clinics is similar to other programs. this allows true longitudinal follow up and continuity in both clinics.
