The University of Colorado School of Medicine Department of Radiology and Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHCO) are seeking a Radiologist with fellowship training in Pediatric Radiology and/or Nuclear Medicine, who is also eligible and motivated to pursue certification in the complementary discipline, to join our 41member pediatric radiology faculty group (36 MD/DO, 5 APP).
