Pediatric
Urology:
The Pediatric Urology Program at The
University of Tennessee, Memphis is very active and is one of a handful of
programs in the United States accredited to train a Pediatric Urology Fellow.
Residents receive two rotations on the pediatric urology service, four months
as a junior resident and four months as a senior resident, and have access to
several hundred cases per year and several thousand clinic visits. All
patients are cared for by a single team which consists of the two attending
staff physicians and the two residents. The care is given at two
free-standing children's hospitals; LeBonheur Children's Medical Center as
the main component and also as consultants at St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital. In addition to this very active clinical environment, scholarly
activities and research opportunities are provided ad encouraged, ad
residents have been very productive in this regard over the years. The
Pediatric Urology program is a stable and very strong component of the
Urology Residency Program at The University of Tennessee, Memphis.
