Medical College of Wisconsin Pediatric Residency PL3 Year

The PL3 year is designed to further refine patient care skills, expand medical knowledge, develop supervisory and teaching skills, and to utilize elective time to explore individual interests. At the completion of this final year, our residents have developed into outstanding clinicians and are very well-prepared to enter practice as primary care or hospital-based pediatricians, to begin subspecialty training or to pursue any other clinical or research training of their choosing.

About PL3 Year

all
Ambulatory Care
The resident is responsible for supervising and teaching residents in the ambulatory clinic of Midtown Clinic-Children's Wisconsin, in close collaboration with faculty attending there.
Electives
Our program offers a wide variety of elective opportunities that allow residents to explore specific interests in pediatrics while working with experts in their respective pediatric subspecialties. We also encourage interested residents to utilize elective time to pursue opportunities in research, medical education, advocacy, and global/community health. We also allow for residents to develop new electives with approval from the Program Director.
