The department offers many clinical opportunities for residents in rural, urban, and suburban settings. The clinical faculty takes seriously their commitment to the education of future providers. These teaching activities take place in community practice offices, inpatient units including labor and delivery, and the operating room both at Magee and at community-based UPMC hospitals in the region. The goal of these efforts is to provide a “real world” environment to experience the presentation and management of obstetrical and gynecological issues. Clinical care in the community setting often requires a different approach than that of an academic medical center, and the clinical faculty provides myriad examples of surgical techniques, case management, and physician interaction with patients, colleagues, and staff.
These group practices use a team approach to providing patient-centered, evidence-based, quality care to the women in their care. Many of our surgeons are well-trained in laparoscopy and robotics and have a high surgical volume. Residents who are interested in becoming general Ob/Gyn physicians can participate in an elective rotation with any of these groups in the patient offices to experience what their day-to-day office routine really entails. The faculty enjoy being a part of the residency program and continue to learn from the residents as much as they learn from them.
