University of Chicago Program
About This Program
Our program sits on Chicago's South Side, a large, historically a community with longstanding health disparities. We serve children of University of Chicago faculty, staff, and medical center employees alongside families from the surrounding community, so trainees see patients across a wide range of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. Inpatient training at Highland Park Hospital adds a suburban population, while our Compass partnership provides partial hospitalization in an urban setting. Fel
