Our Mission

Our program's mission is to provide a clinical and educational experience in neonatal care and to prepare trainees for the leadership roles anticipated as a community or academic neonatologist. 

A brief history

The Neonatology Division at McGovern Medical School has been affiliated with Hermann Hospital in providing care for newborns with complex medical and surgical problems since 1970. The NPM fellowship program was one of the first fellowship programs established in the Department of Pediatrics.
