The combined pediatrics-anesthesiology program at Johns Hopkins provides a unique opportunity to learn from faculty in both the pediatrics and anesthesiology departments. Combined training is ideal for individuals interested in pursuing a career in pediatric critical care, pediatric anesthesiology or pediatric pain management. The first year of residency is devoted to pediatrics—residents begin the program as interns alongside categorical pediatric residents. The second year is devoted to anesthesiology training with residents beginning PGY-2 year with categorical anesthesiology residents who have completed preliminary or transitional internships. The third through fifth years are spent in both departments alternating every three months for a total of six months in each department annually.
