For pediatric ER, do you do a pediatric residency and then a pediatric ER fellowship or do you do an ER program and then a pediatric ER fellowship? How many years does it take?

How many years does it take? Apollyon 02-26-2003, 05:17 PM All pediatric EM fellowships are dually accredited by AAP and the ABEM. The AAP has ordered that any and all and, did I say, all peds fellowships - irrespective of what field - are 3 years. No exception. EM peds fellowships are 2 to 3 years. Some programs are 3 years, no matter where you come from. http://www.saem.org/services/fellowsh.htm#ped This is from the horses' mouths (as it were). Saluki 02-26-2003, 05:39 PM Do you do a pediatric residency before the fellowship? blackcat 02-26-2003, 06:30 PM you can do either a peds or em residency. from what i have seen, those that do peds first, only work in the peds er, and those that do em first all do shifts in the adult ed. |
