The emphasis of this four-year residency training program is on the basic tenets of obstetrics and gynecology at the bedside, in the delivery room, in the operating room and in outpatient services. There are 16 residents, four in each year of a four-year training program.
The clinical area of obstetrics involves approximately 30 percent at-risk or high-risk patients seen during the antepartum, intrapartum and the postpartum periods. The gynecological and oncological services have a large number of operative cases involving a variety of gynecological pathologies. There are specialty clinics in maternal fetal medicine, reproductive endocrinology and infertility, gynecological oncology, urogynecology, comprehensive family planning and pre-invasive disease of the lower genital tract (colposcopy). Each section is headed by a board-certified subspecialist and possesses the latest in technology to advance the educational goals of the resident staff as well as enhance the care of their patients.
The residency program is organized to optimize the progressive development of the resident through feedback and instruction. Assigned faculty mentors and the program director serve as facilitators. At the completion of four years, the resident will have experienced every possible clinical condition noted in the specialty and will have acquired the necessary training to continue onto a fellowship or to function as a specialist or consultant in the field, as well as serve as a primary care provider in general obstetrics and gynecology.
