Pediatrics
Welcome to the Sanford Pediatric Residency Program! As the only pediatric residency program in the Dakotas, we are committed to developing excellent pediatricians dedicated to improving the health and welfare of the children of the Upper Midwest.
Our program encourages residents to take advantage of the distinctive health care characteristics in this region, including rural pediatrics and the unique aspects of caring for American Indian children. Just as important, we ensure that residents receive a foundation of pediatric medicine that can serve as the basis for the most rigorous subspecialty fellowship programs.
The program accepts six residents a year in a three-year training curriculum, and we welcomed our first residency class in the summer of 2011. Each subsequent year we will recruit another new first-year class, achieving a full complement of first-, second- and third-year residents in July 2013.
We hope that you enjoy exploring our site, where you will find additional information about our curriculum, benefits and living in Sioux Falls.
Our small faculty to resident ratio encourages residents to be an essential part of the program’s curriculum design.
