Pediatrics Residency

Welcome to the Pediatrics Residency program at Carilion Clinic! Our location in the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of southwest Virginia gives our residents the unique opportunity to serve the urban communities of Roanoke, as well as the surrounding rural and refugee populations.

As a program, we are deeply committed to the professional and personal growth of our residents. Our comprehensive curriculum aims to prepare excellent pediatricians who are competitive fellowship candidates and equally confident in entering practice following graduation. We strive to address the growing challenges facing pediatric physicians, and as such, have emphasized patient advocacy, quality improvement and mental health as key aspects of our training. Carilion Children’s partnership with the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine allows residents to collaborate with other professionals on world-class research opportunities. 

Our Pediatric Residency is a small program and we value the close-knit relationship between our residents, faculty and staff, who work together to provide excellent care to our patients. We recognize the stressors of training and practicing medicine, and the toll that it can take on resident health and well-being. Accordingly, we are dedicated to providing a safe and welcoming learning environment that promotes and protects resident wellness.
