The Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology Fellowship at Stanford is an outstanding two year program that provides both clinical training and unique opportunities to collaborate and engage in original research. Approximately 70% of the fellow’s time will involve clinical activities; protected times will be available to the fellow for research as the remaining 30% of the time will be spent dedicated to research, scholarly activities, and advocacy. Fellows will be expected to design and implement a research project that leads to a presentation (poster, oral) and/or publication prior to completion of the fellowship. Our program will prepare the individual to join an academic Ob/Gyn department as a faculty member and consultant.
Fellows will participate in PAG clinics, as well a variety of subspecialty and multidisciplinary clinics staffed by the PAG faculty. These include clinics for individuals with hematologic disorders, differences of sex development, and complex ano-rectal anomalies. The PAG service at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital sees patients for both medical and surgical consultations and follows patients with PAG problems from infancy through adolescence and young adulthood. Fellows will also have the opportunity to rotate to a variety of other clinics staffed by faculty in Adolescent Medicine, such as those serving patients with eating disorders and gender dysphoria. Our clinic is in the same clinical space as the Adolescent Medicine Clinic at the Stanford Children’s Health Specialty Services site in Sunnyvale, CA.
The PAG fellowship at LPCH offers a number of unique opportunities for collaboration with other internationally and nationally recognized subspecialty services in both pediatrics and gynecology, including
- Complex family planning
- General gynecology and obstetric services
- Gender care clinic
- Robotic surgery for gynecologic conditions
- Fertility preservation in collaboration with REI and AYA specialists
- Stem cell transplant programs
