Sleep Medicine Fellowship

Our Sleep Center

Faculty and Fellows

The Sleep Fellowship Program at Children’s Mercy Hospital is one of a select few programs in the country that provides pediatric-focused sleep medicine training. This one-year training program is ACGME-approved, and while the program provides sleep medicine training across the entire age spectrum, there is a particular emphasis on pediatrics, with the majority of training taking place at our children’s hospital. Fellows receive their adult training at the University of Kansas and University Health Truman Medical Center. Our mission is to develop leaders in the clinical, scholarly, and educational arenas of pediatric sleep medicine.
