Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship

Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) is the largest pediatric healthcare system in the Southeast and is consistently ranked among the best pediatric hospitals in the country by US News & World Report, Child Magazine, and Parents Magazine.  

Pediatric Dermatology fellows evaluate inpatient consultations at CHOA at Egleston Hospital, one of the largest pediatric medical centers in the United States. Egleston is a 260 bed hospital with over 50,000 ED visits and 10,000 admissions per year. Founded in 1928 as the Henrietta Egleston Hospital for Children, it has served as Emory University’s pediatric teaching affiliate since 1956.  Egleston Hospital is located on the Emory University campus.  

Outpatient pediatric dermatology patients are evaluated in the  Emory Clinic Dermatology Department which is located on the 3rd floor of 1525 Clifton Road.

During training, fellows receive extensive clinical training in the care of a variety of common and uncommon pediatric dermatology disorders under the supervision of a pediatric dermatology attending. Fellows are exposed to clinical and surgical care of pediatric dermatology patients in outpatient clinics, operating rooms (local and general anesthesia), the emergency department, and consultative services (including ward, pediatric, and neonatal intensive care units).  The fellow also has a continuity clinic once a week under the supervision of a pediatric dermatologist.  Regularly scheduled elective clinics in pediatric rheumatology, allergy/immunology, and genetics as well as participation in multi-disciplinary vascular anomalies clinic and graft-versus-host clinic are offered throughout the training year.

Fellows have the opportunity to work with, supervise, and teach Emory University Dermatology and Pediatric residents and medical students.
