The residency program provides graduate medical training in a comprehensive, tertiary care facility with a broad exposure to all subspecialties as well as experience in primary care with an ethnically diverse pediatric population. Opportunities for clinic experiences in private practice offices around the Nashville area provide additional unique experiences to our training.
Residents have a continuity clinic in our Pediatric Primary Care Clinic where they provide longitudinal care for children with a diversity of acute and chronic medical issues from all socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. Approximately 80 percent of these patients are insured under Medicaid. Other demographic information is shown below, reflecting the rich diversity of the patient population seen here.
