| Residency Program in Obstetrics and Gynecology The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine has a large, diverse patient base that provides extensive educational opportunities for our residents. Our faculty includes full-time academic physicians and scientists, as well as a multitude of dedicated teachers. For more information about our outstanding faculty, please visit the faculty pages on our Web site. Our commitment to graduate medical education encourages residents to fully participate as members of the health care team. Weekly conferences include departmental grand rounds and a clinical service review, and several specialty conferences in genetics, endoscopy, perinatology, gynecologic oncology, surgical gynecology, and reproductive endocrinology. In the summer, departmental grand rounds is replaced by sessions focusing on ethics, humanities, and professionalism, which help residents acquire skills in applying these principles to clinical decision-making. A weekly didactic session provides a comprehensive two-year curriculum in which residents are protected from their clinical duties. Residents have full access to the William R. Roach and Cromer, Residents' Education Center. A journal club, which has meetings every six weeks, is designed to enhance the critical evaluation of the literature and reinforce evidence-based medicine. Residents may also attend the monthly meetings of the Chicago Gynecologic Society. Upon entering the second year of residency, residents attend one regional or national meeting annually, which is partially subsidized. In addition, residents are given the option to attend at least one of several postgraduate courses offered by the department each year. For the past several years we have been able to provide a general obstetric and gynecologic textbook, POA, and most recently a PRoles study guide.
