Graduate Outcomes
Our program is dedicated to fostering the clinical skills and professional interests of our residents to their fullest potential. We provide robust support for those entering general pediatric practice as well as those pursuing subspecialty fellowship training. Over the past 25 years (1997-2022), more than 300 residents have successfully completed our program. On average, 40% have chosen to pursue fellowship training across various subspecialties, while 60% have embarked on careers in general pediatrics, either in outpatient settings or as pediatric hospitalists. Notably, many of our graduates choose to practice in Texas, continuing to serve our local community.
Each year, we select our Faculty Chief of Residents from the graduating class, who then transitions into a faculty role and serves as a chief liaison to the pediatric program. Additionally, we appoint 1-3 Administrative PGY-3 Chiefs annually, providing an essential link to the real-time needs of the program. These leaders actively participate in the interview process, engage in program improvement initiatives, and offer valuable support and advocacy for their peers.
Our fellowship match rate is nearly 100%, with trainees securing positions in a range of competitive disciplines, including Adolescent Medicine, Allergy and Immunology, Anesthesia, Cardiology, Child Development, Critical Care, Dermatology, Emergency Medicine, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, General Academic Pediatrics, Hospital Medicine, Hematology/Oncology, Infectious Disease, Neonatology, Nephrology, Neurology, Pulmonology, Rheumatology, Sleep Medicine, and Sports Medicine. Join us to shape your future and make a meaningful impact in pediatric care!
