Neonatal-Perinatal Fellowship

The WVU Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine fellowship is an ACGME-accredited 3-year program that trains one fellow per year.  We strive to offer a high-quality, small program that offers progressive responsibility for trainees, a didactic program that reinforces bedside teaching, and choice in the research focus for fellows. Follow the menu links to learn more about our fellowship program’s clinical rotations, research opportunities, educational offerings, and teaching faculty.

Neonatology is an incredibly rewarding field, and we’re excited that your interests have led you to consider training in the WVU Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship! We love to train pediatric residents and practicing pediatricians who love physiology and procedures, and those who appreciate the honor of being a baby’s first caregiver. The ERAS application season opens in July each year, with the match taking place in December. If you would like more information about a career in neonatology, you can visit the Council of Pediatric Subspecialties website or the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Section on Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine .
