Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship

The Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship training program at the University of Michigan is a one-year program accredited by the American College of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). We offer nine positions yearly and are committed to recruiting a diverse group of fellows dedicated to compassionate clinical care and a rich learning environment.

Fellows will gain a wide variety of experience in the management of difficult pediatric cases, including complex congenital heart disease, neonates, premature neonates, fetal surgery, and transplant. Our pediatric operating rooms are located in our free-standing 348-bed C.S. Mott Children's Hospital, the top-ranked children’s hospital in Michigan (U.S. News & World Report).

Fellows participate in simulation learning

Our fellowship offers several unique advantages:

  • We are one of the busiest centers for congenital cardiac surgery and offer an advanced fellowship in pediatric cardiac anesthesia.
  • Our fellows join ongoing research projects and are highly successful in presenting and winning awards at national meetings.
  • We provide the opportunity to participate in a robust awake infant spinal anesthesia program, which offers a regional anesthetic option for infants undergoing qualifying procedures.
  • The University of Michigan alumni network is one of the largest and strongest in the country, allowing for networking opportunities in anesthesia and beyond.
  • We offer highly competitive salaries and benefits.
