Children's of Alabama
Children's of Alabama sits next to UAB in Birmingham's Southside medical district, just south of downtown.
Residents and fellows commonly live in close-in neighborhoods like Southside, Highland Park, Forest Park, and Avondale, or in the over-the-mountain suburbs of Homewood, Mountain Brook, and Vestavia Hills.
