Our multidisciplinary clinic brings together experts in adolescent medicine, nutrition, psychiatry, social work, and sports medicine. Faculty are recognized for excellence in teaching, clinical care, research, and quality improvement, with key areas of focus including:
- Reproductive Health care

- Feeding and eating disorders
- Global health
- HIV care and pre-exposure prophylaxis
- Transitions to adult health care
The Division offers robust educational experiences for students and residents, and our faculty have earned awards for medical education, lectures, and interprofessional training.
Nationally, we are leaders in adolescent and young adult health education and research, with faculty serving in influential roles within organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Board of Pediatrics, Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine and the North American Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology.
I encourage you to learn more on our website, and contact us about opportunities for education, training and collaboration.
