Electives

At the University of Kentucky, we offer multiple electives in internal medicine and pediatrics (med-peds) that provide excellent opportunities for students interested in these careers. In addition, we have two rotations which provide a combined experience in both internal medicine and pediatrics:

  • MED-872/PED-872 Acting Internship in Medicine-Pediatrics
  • MED-875/PED-875 Med-Peds Ambulatory Care

Medical students who are interested in pursuing a med peds residency or are interested in learning more about what med peds is should consider becoming involved with our UK Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Interest Group through the 91С»Æ³µ. The group is very active and is guided by Dr. Kate Wimberly, who is a med peds APD. Questions about the group and information about getting more involved can be directed to Dr. Wimberly (Kate.Wimberly@uky.edu).
