The clinical responsibilities progress in complexity as the resident advances through the program. Exposure to all subspecialties and the basic sciences allows the integration of a new knowledge into patient management. During the second, third and fourth years of the program, each resident maintains their own Continuity Clinic one day per week. This allows the resident to follow a woman with ob-gyn needs for three years. The department also has medical student educational programs including an eight-week clerkship rotation in the third year and senior medical student electives.
Residents have a major responsibility in the teaching of medical students.
