UMass Chan Medical School Program
About This Program
While our PEM fellowship was established in 2021, for decades the pediatric emergency department and the Children's Medical Center at UMass have been caring for ill and injured children from across central Massachusetts, as well as New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Our staff of board-certified PEM providers are excited to have created a world-class fellowship program with the aim of training the next generation of clinicians, educators and leaders within the field of PEM.
