Welcome from the Program Directors
If you are looking for a pediatrics residency training opportunity that exposes you to a diverse patient population, an amazing array of pediatric pathology, a tremendous resident camaraderie, and a friendly and responsive faculty in a wonderfully livable city, you have come to the right place! Children’s Mercy Hospitals and Clinics have a long history of providing compassionate, state-of-the-art care to the children of Kansas City and our surrounding region. We continue that tradition today while providing our residents with a comprehensive, thoughtful, and rewarding education that prepares them to pursue any career path they choose.
Our website highlights many of the unique experiences and features of our residency program, but it only scratches the surface. As program directors, we encourage you to get to know Children’s Mercy Hospital. Spend some time on one of our clinical rotations or come to visit us to see for yourself. We think you will like what you see!
