Overview

St. Christopher's is one of the oldest pediatric surgery programs. The hospital cares for a very underserved population who often present late to care or are unable to get care elsewhere. We are the regional pediatric burn center. There is opportunity to spend time at the Shriner's Hospital as well to learn spine exposure techniques.
