Fully accredited by the American Osteopathic College of Anesthesiologists (AOCA), our 1-year pediatric anesthesia fellowship holds the distinction of being the only osteopathic anesthesiology fellowship program in Ohio.

Our goal is to provide a strong foundation for a career in pediatric anesthesiology by exposing you to a flexible academic environment.
As a pediatric anesthesiology fellow, you'll experience patient care, medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement, interpersonal communication skills, professionalism and systems-based practice, based on ACGME competencies.
Our program is accredited by the American Osteopathic College of Anesthesiologists and one of the few in Ohio.
