Fellowship Program

The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Fellowship at Boston Medical Center (formerly Boston City Hospital) is an accredited program which was established in 1988. Our program is devoted to training highly skilled physicians for leadership roles in this rapidly developing sub-specialty. Boston Medical Center plays a major role in the care of children in Boston and our Pediatrics Department is a leading force in ambulatory pediatrics in the country. The Pediatric Emergency Department has always been a major part of Boston Medical Center's commitment to children and an essential part of residency education.

The Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine is part of the Department of Pediatrics at Boston Medical Center and Boston University School of Medicine. The hospital is located in the South End section of Boston and is a state of the art facility, indicative of the hospital's importance to the city. Our Pediatric Emergency Department has twelve rooms for non-acute care, four beds for  acute care/observation and a trauma/resuscitation suite.

We treat approximately 31,000 children a year in our Emergency Department. We are a level one trauma center and the home site of Boston EMS.  Our ED provides on-line medical control for the city of Boston.
