Resident Teaching Awards for Exemplary Student Teaching

When medical students complete their Graduation Questionnaire they are asked about their experience with residents teaching in the clerkships. Pediatrics is one of the few departments that consistently scores ABOVE the national average. During the annual Hail and Farewell Event, individual residents are recognized for their excellence in teaching.
