Dedicated exclusively to children and their families, SickKids is a world-renowned state of the art quaternary pediatric hospital affiliated with the University of Toronto.

The Division of Urology has 3 full-time and 1 part-time pediatric urologists, a medical urologist, 2 full-time nurse practitioners and 1 registered nurse. Our Division provides care for neonates, children, and adolescents with a wide range of urological conditions including congenital abnormalities of the kidneys and urinary tract, hypospadias, undescended testicles and urolithiasis, but also rare conditions with high levels of complexity such as bladder exstrophy, cloacal anomalies, uro-oncology, disorders of sexual differentiation and renal transplantation (over 20 transplants per year). Approximately 90% of our patients come from the Great Toronto Area, serving a highly diverse and multicultural community of 6.9 million people (1.7 million under 19), while the remaining 10% consists of patients from Ontario, the rest of Canada and abroad.

The candidate is also expected to develop and advance their individual research interests while also taking initiative to drive a collective research endeavour such as prospective outcomes research and continue to build upon our culture of quality and safety.

The successful candidate should also demonstrate exceptional skills that fulfill the CanMEDS framework (Medical Expert, Communicator, Collaborator, Leader, Health Advocate and Scholar), have a proven track record in research, have an interest in innovation and commit to ensuring top quality education for fellows, residents, medical students and interprofessional trainees.
