Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship

The Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship Training Program at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago/Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (“Lurie Children’s”) is accepting applications from board-eligible or board-certified pediatricians for a one-year fellowship program in pediatric dermatology.

Training in pediatric dermatology typically requires board-certification or board-eligibility in dermatology. Given low numbers in the pediatric dermatology national fellowship application pool, we open our program vacancies, when available, to applicants who have completed pediatrics training (but not dermatology) and wish to gain more experience and competence in this exciting field.

Although training will not qualify the pediatrician trainee for board certification in pediatric dermatology, this paid fellowship, called “Advanced Dermatology Primary Care Pediatrics”, is ideal for those who desire to be more competent in treating skin disorders, those who plan on practicing in rural settings where referral for specialty care may be challenging, or those who may be considering formal application to dermatology residency programs. Salary will be commensurate with your postgraduate year of training. A generous medical and dental healthcare package is included, with an optional vision plan.
