The Pediatric Residency Program at UCSF Fresno is accepting applications for graduating pediatric resident(s) to serve as Chief Resident(s) during the 2023-2024 academic year. The Pediatric 4th Year Chief /Clinical Faculty is the first line contact person for residents on the pediatric services and is a liaison between faculty and residents. The Chief is available to address resident concerns, offer support and practical advice to residents, and work as faculty (Clinical Instructor) on inpatient and outpatient services. Activities also include administering the resident call schedule, leading Morning Report, and generally playing an active role in the education of residents and medical students. Participation and mentoring by senior faculty in areas for individual professional development in a particular area of medicine/medical education and leadership is expected. Additional moonlighting opportunities in areas of interest are also available.
The program is based in Fresno, California, where residents enjoy a high standard of living combined with a low cost of living. The result is a quality of life uniquely Californian, yet surprisingly affordable. Limitless recreational opportunities and spectacular scenery is all accessible in a community with abundant affordable housing. While there is much to see and do in Fresno, the city is ideally located for fast, convenient getaways to the majestic Sierra (just 90 minutes away) as well as the scenic Central Coast, just two and one-half hours away. Fresno is the only major city in the country with close proximity to three national parks, including renowned Yosemite National Park.
