Overview
We strive to provide the obstetric experience that each individual resident desires. For those not choosing to practice OB in the future, you will follow the usual rotation schedule with a goal of completing 20-40 deliveries.
For those who would like a more robust OB experience with a goal of 80-100 deliveries. How you reach that goal is slightly different depending on the track.
