    The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers a four-year accredited residency program designed to provide extensive experience leading to board certification. The OB/GYN residency program started in 1951 and has grown steadily over the years, in both the number of residents and faculty. We currently accept 7 residents every incoming class. Our residency program is a hybrid of academic and community programs. Like many community programs, we have a high volume of patients. These patients have two distinct groups of providers: Patients that are seen in resident clinics, high risk OB clinic, local health departments, no prenatal care/no physician provider, and transfers from outside facilities are all provided care by the residents/faculty. And, there is a large number of private practice physicians who bring their patients to our facility for both obstetrical care and gynecologic surgery.
