About our Residency
Training in Pediatric Surgery and the practice of Pediatric Surgery is a privilege. During your training and career you will be entrusted with the lives, confidences, and hopes of children and their families. This duty should motivate us to learn, work, and teach each day so that we can become more skilled and compassionate surgeons. The purpose of this training period is to build upon the skills and knowledge you have gained during your general surgery training so that you achieve competence in Pediatric Surgery.
Portland is the largest city in Oregon and provides quick access to the Pacific Ocean, Mt. Hood and the Willamette Valley. In their off hours, our residents enjoy hiking, mountain biking, skiing, surfing, rock climbing and fishing. Oregon is an ecologically-minded state that values conservation and encourages a "green" outlook on life. Many residents bike to work. The links below expand on different aspects of the residency.
