Fellowship

The Pediatric Cardiology fellowship program at Washington University School of Medicine and St. Louis Children’s Hospital is accredited by the Council for Graduate Medical Education. The goal of our training program is to prepare fellows to become pediatric cardiologists able to independently supervise the diagnosis and care of infants, children and teenagers/young adults with all forms of congenital and acquired cardiac disease. This includes care of patients after cardiac surgery in the intensive care unit, step-down unit and outpatient settings. In addition, fellows gain experience in research and teaching to prepare them for a career in academic medicine. Most fellows will complete two years of clinical rotations and one year of research and electives. The program offers three positions a year through the National Resident Matching Program.
