Overview

The one-year Emory Pediatric Otolaryngology Fellowship encompasses all aspects of pediatric head and neck care, with fellows being exposed to complex airway surgery, cochlear implantation, sinus and skull base surgery, thyroid surgery, and surgery for cleft/velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI). Fellows participate in multi-disciplinary clinics dedicated to aerodigestive pathology; vascular malformation; swallowing, voice, and cleft/VPI conditions; and have the opportunity to engage in medical mission work.

Upon conclusion of the fellowship, candidates will be prepared to meet the requirements and demands of an academic otolaryngology position.

Goals and Objectives

Upon completing the program, graduating fellows should:

  • Have a comprehensive knowledge of management options for pediatric ear, nose, and throat disorders

  • Feel comfortable performing complex middle ear surgery, cochlear implants, airway reconstructions, cleft lip and palate repair, and resection of complex neck masses

  • Be able to proficiently coordinate multidisciplinary care for pediatric otolaryngology patients

  • Be equipped to pursue research in an academic medical setting

Clinical Responsibilities

Fellows will participate in level-appropriate operative cases across the breadth of pediatric otolaryngology at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, where more than 8,000 otolaryngology cases are performed annually. Fellows will also participate in specialty clinics and have an active role in managing the consult service.

Research and Outreach

Participation in clinical research is expected during the fellowship year, and support for presentations at national meetings will be provided. Accommodations for basic science research or pursuance of a MPH degree can be arranged based on interest. There will also be opportunities to participate in international mission work.

Resident Education

Direct supervision of PGY-2, PGY-3, and PGY-5 residents will be a daily part of clinical activities. Fellows also participate in leading resident didactic sessions. Regular collaborative conferences are held with the neuroradiology and pathology departments and are used as a forum to discuss difficult and/or interesting cases.

Eligibility and Application

Qualified applicants should have completed an ACGME or Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada-accredited otolaryngology residency and be board eligible or board certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology. A Georgia medical license is required.

To apply, please submit the ASPO universal fellowship application, including your CV, personal statement and three letters of recommendation.
