Why are our fellowship programs different?

The minute you walk into Akron Children’s, you can sense that people here love what they do. No matter where you are on your career journey, Akron Children’s feels different because our work makes a difference in children’s lives.

From visits with the Doggie Brigade, to the balloons and smiles in the halls, the sights and sounds are all about one thing: the children. Our passion is felt every day in the way people care at every level. We have a strong commitment to outstanding patient care, and to our employees, students and volunteers.

Akron Children’s is the largest pediatric healthcare provider in northeast Ohio. Our training programs offer clinical experience in a supportive environment and help prepare participants in providing quality, evidence-based care. Educational opportunities range from pediatric residency and fellowship programs to clinical placements and internships.

Our fellowship programs are structured to provide excellent clinical and scholarly training in a friendly and supportive environment. Our trainees graduate as expertly trained clinicians who provide superior clinical care, are content experts in their respective fields and are seasoned educators of future clinicians. In addition to busy clinical services which expose Fellows to the breadth of their subspecialties, the Rebecca D. Considine Research Institute at Akron Children’s provides Fellows with the scholarly training and experience necessary to further their academic pursuits.

Akron Children’s is seeking people who are committed to fostering a diverse environment in which patients, family, and staff from a variety of backgrounds, cultures, and personal experiences are welcomed, included and can thrive. We’re looking for enthusiastic individuals who have the drive to make a difference and go beyond the status quo to gain more from their careers. You’ll be encouraged to reach your goals and be supported as you grow, care and lead.

There’s a lot to love about what you can do at Akron Children’s and we look forward to working with you as you continue your journey.
