University of Miami/Jackson Health System Program
About This Program
While we care for many local patients with allergic rhinitis and asthma, in particular, we excel and are a referral center for pediatric food allergies as a Food Allergy Research and Education Clinical Network Center of Distinction; and primary immunodeficiency as a Jeffrey Modell Foundation Center of Excellence. The Miami Health District is buzzing with educational and research opportunities, and trainees enjoy being a part of the trainee community at the University of Miami and Jackson.
