In addition to the electives listed above, the residents have dedicated individualized curriculum time which allows them to create electives that fit their individual needs!

Continuity Clinic: We have a strong continuity clinic where residents serve as true primary care providers for their patients. All residents are a part of our general pediatric continuity clinic onsite at Yacktman Outpatient Clinic, which is a designated Patient Centered Medical Home.

Vacation: Residents get 20 PTO days throughout the year. In an effort to make the program more flexible and inclusive of various religious and secular holidays, all residents can choose either 4 weeks of vacation or 3 weeks of vacation with 5 separate weekday PTO days to use throughout the year.
