About Janice A Taylor

I am a 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’s Hospital Medical Center in the laboratory of Dr. Brad Warner. My pediatric surgery fellowship was done at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston from 2010-2012, where I continued as an Assistant Professor from 2012-2013. I have been here at UF ever since.

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 a member of the Association for Surgical Education, Society of University Surgeons, American Pediatric Surgical Association, American College of Surgeons, and a specialty fellow member of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
