All residents have a continuity clinic each week to see the obstetric and gynecologic patients they will be following for the du ration of their residency training. Senior residents and faculty are available in the clinic for consultation.
Teams consist of residents of various training levels.
Each team has a designated clinic day, surgery day, and labor and delivery day, with the other two week days being divided among th e teams to include additional OR time, labor and delivery experience, and specialty clinics including colposcopy and contraception clinics. Merging of the obstetric and gynecologic experience allows for patients to be followed longitudinally and for a team approach for the care of our patients. It has been a popular rotation. During this rotation, two residents cover the Wishard Obstetric Intensive Care Unit Sunday through Thursday nights from 6 p.m. to 7 a.m. the next morning. Residents are then free to go home and rest.
