Special Features
Our program provides excellent clinical training in an urban, underserved setting. 70% of clinical time is spent at a free-standing Children's hospital, 30% at community-based primary care sites. Residents complete a 1yr population health certification program with University of Michigan, participate in an anti-racism curriculum, can elect a 2mo rotation in Kenya, and are very well prepared for fellowship or primary care. We are excited to meet you! @authorityhealthpediatrics
