Pediatrics Residency Program
Program Director Welcome
Welcome to the Oklahoma State University family, home of the OSU Medical Center and
OMECO Teaching Health Center pediatric residency programs! We hope you find our website
full of specific information about our residents, faculty, alumni and staff. All of
the information about our curriculum, salary, benefits and training facilities can
be found throughout this website. My hope is that you not only find the information
needed but that you are able to see what makes our training environment at OSU such
a wonderful place as you accomplish your goals and dreams of becoming a pediatric
physician!
Our sponsorship by Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences and the Osteopathic
Medical Education Consortium of Oklahoma, combined with our status as one of the largest
training hospitals in the United States, means that our residents get the “best of
both worlds.” Our diverse and talented faculty wear many hats: they teach at state
and national meetings, are recognized leaders in the community and are passionate
advocates for whole-person-based primary care. All of our residents learn the full-spectrum
of pediatric medicine, including neonatal care, community medicine, and tremendous
experience in outpatient and inpatient pediatric medicine, with an emphasis on osteopathic
philosophy and practices. At the same time, our Oklahoma State University connection
gives our residents access to significant academic resources and medical student teaching
opportunities right here in Tulsa, a haven of Southern comfort and cosmopolitan style
in the expansive Oklahoma plains.
We recognize that there are a multitude of excellent pediatric medicine training options
in the country. Why choose us? One simple answer – the people. We are passionate
about what we do and whom we serve. When we ask residents, faculty, and staff what
they most like about our residency program, the answer is universally “the people”
and the sense of belonging to a learning community that feels like a family. We want
to continue to attract people who share our dedication to serving those who need it
the most. If you are committed to caring for the underserved and seek training in
an academically rigorous yet “hands-on” learning environment, please be sure to contact
us. We look forward to sharing our enthusiasm with you.
Sincerely,
