My bio
Hi, my name is Janice Taylor, MD. I am an associate professor of surgery in the division of pediatric surgery at the University of Florida College of Medicine. I earned my medical degree from The Ohio State University in 2003. I then completed my general surgery residency in 2010 at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. From 2005-2007, I completed a research fellowship in pediatric surgery at Cincinnati Children鈥檚 Hospital Medical Center in the laboratory of Dr. Brad Warner. Prior to joining UF, I completed a pediatric surgery fellowship at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston, where I continued as an assistant professor in pediatric surgery from 2012-2013.
I focus on all aspects of pediatric surgery, with special interests in intestinal rehabilitation, neonatal surgery and minimally invasive surgery. I am the surgical director of the UF Pediatric Intestinal Rehabilitation Program. My non-clinical research focus is surgical education. I am board-certified by the American Board of Surgery in general surgery and pediatric surgery. I am also a member of the Association for Surgical Education, Association for Academic Surgery, American Pediatric Surgical Association, American College of Surgeons, and is a specialty fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
