Pediatrics

Our residency program offers pediatric didactics and hands-on care for pediatric patients both in the clinic and hospital. Partnerships with St. Luke's Medical Center in Boise and Primary Children's Medical Center in Salt Lake City provide additional training in inpatient and outpatient pediatric care, emergency stabilization, neonatal resuscitation, and intubations. Outpatient pediatric patients are seen in both our home clinic and Health West Pediatric Clinic, including circumcision training. 

First-year residents complete two weeks of general inpatient pediatrics at St. Luke's in Boise and two weeks inpatients pediatrics at Portneuf Medical Center in Pocatello, while second-year residents spend four weeks in the pediatric emergency department at Primary Children's Hospital and two weeks in the local NICU.

Residents can expect to spend four weeks during their residency on the inpatient pediatrics service at Portneuf Medical Center in Pocatello.
