About Curt Fudge

Hi, my name is Dr. Curt Fudge and I work in pediatrics at UF Health. I am board-certified in pediatrics and pediatric cardiology. I completed my medical degree and pediatric residency at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta. Following the completion of this residency, I pursued a fellowship, a Master of Health Science in clinical research and a postgraduate program in congenital interventional catheterization at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina.

Prior to UF Health, I served as a faculty instructor at the Medical College of Georgia in the division of pediatric emergency medicine, and worked as a medical instructor at Duke University Medical Center in the division of pediatric cardiology.

At UF Health, I work as the director of the congenital cardiac catheterization program at the UF Health Congenital Heart Center. I am a member of UF Health’s Cardiac Catheterization Task Force, and I organize UF Health’s annual Cardiac Catheterization Conference. My clinical interests include cardiac catheterization and pediatric cardiology.
