Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship App 2026

[Antitryptic]

Hey all! Haven't seen any posts about pediatric fellowship cycle this year. Just wondering which programs you've heard back from so far. Most of mine are from East Coast programs, but not as many from programs on the West Coast... specifically California ones and Seattle, anyone hear from them yet?

Joining the party here! Didn't apply to any in California, but have not heard back from Seattle too.

Hey! Glad to hear from a few others. I actually got a couple from CHLA and UCSF this past week, have not heard from Seattle or Stanford yet. I wonder how this cycle will compare to last year’s…

I think we're all waiting on Seattle haha

 

[Antitryptic]

Has anyone had been through any interviews yet? If so, have they been pretty chill?

 

[anesthetized]

UCLA invite today

 

[Antitryptic]

Interviews have been pretty chill! Only been through a handful so far but very conversational, low stress for the most part. Seems like invites have slowed down quite a bit now that that interviews have started to ramp up

 

[sweetsecrets]

Seattle invite today! (Also with the notice of last two time slots available.)

 

[Antitryptic]

With ITE results released now, does anyone know if there are there any programs that are requesting for updates?

 

[anesthetized]

Any updates from anyone?

 

[Antitryptic]

Hope interviews have been going well for everyone! It's an exciting time

Don't know if it would make a difference, but anyone thinking about sending a letter of intent to their #1?

I wasn't planning on it since I mentioned in my interview with the PD that their program was my top choice and they jotted something down right after haha.

Also anyone know how many pediatric fellows Seattle averages yearly?

I'm going to send one. I don't see any harm in doing so.

 

[posthumousmyrtle]

Wasn't personally going to either! But I don't think it would hurt. I just think my email would be too awkward that it'd hurt my odds 😂

 

[Antitryptic]

Ok cool, glad I'm not gonna be the only one then haha! Y'all planning on sending out towards the end of interviews? I'm thinking about sending in like the next week or two

 

[ambiturner]

Totally fine to do that - as long as it’s actually your #1. Have seen some people through the years send that email and then not match, even though they were ranked to match. Needless to say they were not invited for a job interview the next year.

Thanks everyone! Went ahead and sent one this past week. Hopefully wasn't too early...
