Electives

Each fellow’s schedule is personally designed to meet their educational and clinical needs. We recruit fellows from both Emergency Medicine and Pediatrics so we tailor each fellow’s education to their needs with a variety of specialties and subspecialties available as electives.

Previous fellows have completed electives in: orthopedics, ENT, ophthalmology, pediatric surgery, pediatric cardiology, EMS, Medical Education, and Adolescent Medicine. If there is an elective a fellow would like to do we will help organize and facilitate whichever elective they choose.
