The University of Louisville Department of Pediatrics exists to meet the health-related needs of children. Our faculty are researchers who explore innovation in pediatric medicine. They are leaders in their fields, serving on local, regional, and national committees and organizations, helping to set standards of care and formulate new treatment models. They are educators, focused on training the next generation of pediatricians and specialists. We work with community partners to provide a full range of services to children throughout Louisville, Southern Indiana, and Kentucky, providing clinical health care through our affiliation with Norton Children's system of hospitals and outpatient practices, pediatrics units at UofL Hospital, Owensboro Medical Center and Baptist Health Paducah.
