Education
PGY-IV:

During the chief year, residents run their individual services and have a teaching responsibility toward their junior residents and the medical students. Training in the gynecologic subspecialty fields (oncology, REI, and urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery) is included in all of the gynecology rotations throughout the course of the residency. Residents perform a wide range of operative procedures and generally graduate the program with a vast array of surgical skills. As for obstetrics, the focus is on MFM and taking on a supervisory role over the Labor and Delivery Unit.
Throughout the entire residency, continuity clinics provide the residents with the ability to care for their own panel of patients in an ongoing fashion. Residents are assigned a one half-day session each week to develop their own "practice" of patients covering the full range of diagnoses seen in the field. It is expected that the housestaff will provide care for the overall health of the patient, including preventive medicine, general medical conditions, family planning, prenatal, obstetrical, postpartum, and gynecological care.
