Chief Residents The key educational, clinical and administrative leaders for the house
staff are the Chief Residents. Each year two members of the graduating
class are selected and remain for an additional year and fulfill this
vital role. They are appointed to the faculty as Instructors of Pediatrics
so they can serve at an attending level in the clinical aspect of their
role, including clinical service as General Pediatrics Inpatient Attendings
on the inpatient ward service, as General Pediatrics Clinic Attendings,
or as Teaching Attendings. They share responsibilities for educational
initiatives and administrative issues throughout their year of service.
Interacting with faculty, house staff, and hospital administration, the
Chief Residents act as liaisons and leaders.
Approximately 40% of our residents enter fellowships, with a good portion
staying at Stanford. Current fellowship offerings include Adolescent
Medicine, Cardiology, Critical Care, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology,
General Pediatrics, Hematology-Oncology, Infectious Diseases, Neonatology,
Nephrology, and Rheumatology. Our program assists residents in obtaining
their top fellowship choices. Inquiries regarding the scope of these
programs should be made directly to the Department
of Pediatrics Division
Chiefs.
We have been fortunate to place residents in top fellowship positions, superb pediatric practices, and exciting hospitalist positions. Many graduates tend to stay in the Bay Area following completion of their training. Approximately two-thirds of our graduates pursue general pediatrics careers with half entering primary care pediatrics practices settings. The remainder enter general academic pediatrics fellowships or become pediatric hospitalists. The remaining one-third of graduating residents enter subspecialty fellowships or specialty residencies. The following is a list of fellowship programs our graduates have entered over the past 14 years:
