We offer a categorical training program which includes the PGY 1 through 4 years. Traditional PGY-1 rotations are completed during the first and second years of the residency, allowing the anesthesiology resident early access to the operating room during their training. Resident education comes first. We have educational conferences or lectures every weekday morning in a variety of formats.
Faculty members provide operating room teaching.
We provide one of the most extensive didactic programs found anywhere in the United States. Our 24-month repeating lecture series covers basic science and clinical anesthesia. Case Conference, Grand Rounds, Morbidity and Mortality Conference, and Journal Club complement the lecture series. In these sessions, senior residents discuss a complex case in a problem-oriented format with two faculty mentors. Patient care is the arena in which the clinical skills of the resident develop.
