A Welcome Note from the Vice President of Medical Education

William Dirksen, MD
Vice President of
Medical Education

One of the strengths of our pediatric residency program is the outstanding quality of our faculty and our residents, who represent a diverse group of professionals from throughout the country and the world. We have a deep commitment to the health and well-being of children. We provide the opportunity to experience all facets of pediatric medicine, from the most complex intensive care to that of general pediatrics. This experience is accomplished in a warm and inviting setting. We provide a balanced education with emphasis on a strong foundation in general pediatrics. Our focus is on preparing residents for a lifetime of quality involvement in the medical care of children, either in primary care or subspecialty medicine. Our three year program is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) as well as by the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) with fourteen combined residents in each year of training.
