Perioperative Anesthesiology Residency
Residents from Harvard-affiliated institutions (Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Beth Israel-Deaconess Medical Center), local hospitals (Boston University Medical Center, St. Elizabeth’s Hospital), and occasionally hospitals outside of the Boston area spend between one to three months at a time in the department, participating in clinical care of the full spectrum of pediatric patients with regard to age, severity of primary and co-existing diseases, and complexity of surgery in the perioperative environment.
Founded in 1869, Boston Children’s Hospital has blossomed into a 397-bed pediatric health care center that cares for local, regional, national, and international patients. The hospital’s medical staff — more than 1,000 staff physicians and 1,200 trainees — cares for more than 500,000 patients annually, including performing more than 29,000 surgical procedures — and delivers 35,000 anesthetics each year.
