Children’s Hospital is one <strong>of</strong> the more<br />
renowned programs in the United States. The<br />
program matches one resident each year for a<br />
two-year position after completion <strong>of</strong> a general<br />
surgery chief residency. During the training<br />
period, the resident assumes graded<br />
responsibility and is exposed to the entire<br />
spectrum <strong>of</strong> pediatric surgery, including<br />
trauma, neonatal surgery, transplantation,<br />
bariatric surgery, extracorporeal membrane<br />
oxygenation, fetal intervention, and advanced<br />
anorectal reconstruction.<br />
The Division<br />
<strong>of</strong> Pediatric<br />
<strong>Surgery</strong> includes<br />
twelve full-time<br />
pediatric<br />
surgeons, three<br />
PhD researchers,<br />
six pediatric nurse<br />
practitioners,<br />
pediatric<br />
residents, general<br />
surgery residents<br />
from three<br />
different programs in <strong>Cincinnati</strong>, and medical<br />
students. The operating room is one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
busiest in the country with over 25,000 cases<br />
performed annually. The emergency<br />
department evaluates roughly 80,000 patients<br />
each year. Each resident completes<br />
approximately 1,400 pediatric surgery cases<br />
during the residency. The pediatric surgery<br />
residency was recently reviewed by the<br />
ACGME and received full accreditation for the<br />
next 5 years.<br />
