About the Program
The Baylor College of Medicine Pediatric Pulmonology Fellowship Program is a three year program, accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Approved for three fellows per year, our training program is one of the largest pediatric pulmonology fellowship programs in the nation.
Through our fellowship program, we train a diverse group of physicians to become board certified pediatric pulmonologists who go on to provide extraordinary medical care for children with pulmonary diseases and who will advance the field of pediatric pulmonology through patient care, research or education. We provide three years of exemplary education aimed at fostering the growth and professional development of each fellow and provide an optimal learning environment to support and cultivate individual career interests in pulmonary medicine.
Clinical Training Program
Our fellows train at Texas Children’s Hospital in the prestigious Texas Medical Center located in Houston, Texas.
Texas Children's is a not-for-profit organization where the mission is to create a healthier future for children and women through a global community by leading in patient care, education and research.
Texas Children's is consistently ranked among the nation's top children’s hospitals by U.S.News & World Report and among the top-ranked pediatric hospitals for pulmonology.
Wellness
Maintaining physical and emotional wellness is a prerequisite to professional success. Our fellows have access to a number of programs to support their well-being.
In addition, the Pediatric Subspecialty Fellows' College hosts an annual wellness day event where all of the pediatric subspecialty fellows come together to relax, eat and have fun. Our pulmonary fellows are an incredible support network for one another at work and outside of work. Life- long friendships develop every year between fellows as well as faculty.
