Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Program
About This Program
CHOP's role as a tertiary referral center as well as a prime provider for the local Philadelphia community ensures that fellows will be exposed to a high volume of common conditions as well as frequent encounters of rare and complex cases. We aim to leverage the resources of our affiliation with the University of Pennsylvania to nurture individual fellows' interests by facilitating collaborations with a diverse array of interdisciplinary scholars and mentors across the CHOP/Penn system.
