The Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition Fellowship Program at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is a three-year ACGME-accredited subspecialty training program designed to develop expertise in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal, liver, pancreatic, and nutritional disorders in infants, children, and adolescents.
