Statements from Categorical Directors
We’re proud to partner with the Med-Peds Residency Program, which has been a vital addition to our training community since its launch in 2014. The program continues to address a critical need for primary care providers across our state—especially those trained to care for patients across the lifespan and support transitions from pediatric to adult care.
Med-Peds residents are valued members of our clinical and educational environments, bringing a unique perspective and a strong commitment to comprehensive care. Faculty across departments regularly share how much they appreciate the thoughtful contributions Med-Peds trainees make in a wide range of clinical settings. I am particularly grateful to interact with the residents in the PICU and am always impressed with their passion, knowledge and commitment to patient care.
It’s an honor to support this exceptional group of residents, and I look forward to working alongside them as the program continues to thrive.

Program Director, Pediatric Residency Training Program
Under the leadership of Dr. Julie Venci, the program in Medicine-Pediatrics at the University of Colorado has risen to become one of the premier medical training programs on campus. Both the Pediatric Program Director, Dr. Rosenberg, and I could not be more proud to support the efforts of these trainees.
Living half time in the world of adult medicine and half time in pediatrics, a Med-Peds resident at the University of Colorado truly gets the best of both worlds. From world-class patient care in both the young and the old, to hands-on, in-depth training in medical education, advocacy, research and global health, we are happy to have the residents in Medicine-Pediatrics be a part of our program.
Working collaboratively and treating patients across the entirety of their lives requires a diverse set of skills and knowledge. When
Med-Peds residents to train alongside our Internal Medicine residents,
it increases their depth of knowledge while simultaneously adding to the
breadth of what our residents are exposed to – a true win-win.
I am proud to fully support the trainees in Medicine-Pediatrics at the University of Colorado and look forward to many years of collaboration and growth together.
