About the Program
The Adult Pediatric Nephrology Fellowship is an ACGME-accredited combined adult and pediatric nephrology fellowship, which began in 2016. This is a joint partnership between the nephrology divisions at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Since 2016, we have successfully matched three candidates who started with adult nephrology rotations. This position is filled for 2022. The 2023 position is currently open.

- Fellows graduating from this program would be eligible for both ABP and ABIM nephrology board exams
