Valley Children's Hospital has announced a plan for a new graduate medical education program for pediatric residents and fellows.
The new program will trains doctors to become pediatric sub-specialists at the hospital, and will establish a fellowship program.
The hospital says it has offered to sponsor the existing pediatric residency program, which is a partnership with UCSF. Officials with Valley Children's say the hospital will continue to support that program financially until the hospital's own residency program is established.
