Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship

The Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship at Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin is a three-year ACGME-accredited training program designed to prepare future specialists in pediatric cardiology. Based at Dell Children’s Medical Center, the program is part of the Texas Center for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease — a rapidly growing, multidisciplinary service led by renowned cardiac surgeon Charles Fraser, Jr., M.D. Fellows benefit from high clinical volume and complexity, gaining hands-on experience in a range of cardiac subspecialties and clinical research. The program is structured to support personalized training pathways that reflect each fellow’s professional goals.
