Make An Impact While Forging Your Path

The Driscoll Children’s Hospital Residency Program is a pediatric residency program in South Texas. Our mission of being “devoted to expert care, education, outreach and advocacy” resonates throughout our residency program—and extends to the culture of trust and collaboration inside our own teams. As a result, our residency program is known for its diverse, inclusive and inviting environment.

Driscoll Children’s Hospital is in Corpus Christi, Texas, overlooking the bay. Along with the benefit of sunny summers and mild winters, our hospital system is positioned to serve a large area of South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley. Here, residents have the opportunity to learn from a patient population of substantial volume with an abundance of diverse and unusual pathology.

We’re excited to help you learn and to also learn from you along the way. Welcome to Driscoll.
