The Division of Allergy and Immunology at Cincinnati Children's and the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine are committed to the growth of our fellows as pediatric and internal medicine clinicians, researchers, and educators. All faculty members of the division take their roles as educators for fellowship training very seriously, and the experience of our diverse faculty allows fellows the opportunity to learn from many different clinical and interpersonal styles. The assets of our programs provide an environment of academic thoroughness striving to change the outcome for our patients.
