Pediatric Urgent Care Physician Fellowship
Pediatric Urgent Care Fellowship is designed for residency graduates and pediatricians who want to enhance their training in the rapidly growing field of pediatric urgent care medicine. These programs are typically one year in duration (with some exceptions for experienced pediatricians), and involve a combination of clinical experience in pediatric urgent care environments, subspecialty electives, and academic training (lectures, workshops, research/QI, etc). These fellowship programs are designed to bridge the gap from pediatric residency training to expert provider in pediatric urgent care. Key aspects of fellowship training include:
- Evidence-based approach to acute illness
- Management of minor trauma and musculoskeletal injuries
- Procedural training
- Radiology interpretation
- Approach to higher acuity patients (respiratory distress, administration of IV medications and fluids, etc) in urgent care/outpatient setting
- Efficient practice combined with service excellence
