Academic General Pediatrics and Primary Care

The Division of Academic General Pediatrics and Primary Care at Children's of Alabama has excelled in each of its unique roles of teaching, research, and clinical care responsibilities of the medical center. Faculty members supervise care provided by residents and students in a variety of clinics ranging from primary care to specialty services through UAB and Children's of Alabama. Additionally, several faculty see patients at the UAB Sparks Center for evaluation of developmental and behavioral issues. Because of our faculty's unique roles in teaching, research, and clinical care, some links on this page will take you to non-Children's sites.
