Baylor College of Medicine Program
About This Program
The CAP fellowship program at Baylor/TCH is unique in that it is housed within the Division of Public Health Pediatrics. The Division's focus is not only on the early identification and management of suspected child abuse, but also on developing programming/resources dedicated to upstream prevention of child abuse maltreatment. This, coupled with the sheer volume and breadth of clinical experiences available at TCH and in the Houston area, makes for an exceptional fellowship experience.
