Memorial Hermann Hospital
Ob/Gyn Residency Program

Overview

Our department is recognized nationally as a leader in patient care, education and research. We believe that our residency program has several characteristics that make it a great place to train. First and foremost, our current residents are top notch! They are dedicated physicians with unbridled enthusiasm and a penchant for learning. Some have roots in Texas while others have been drawn to Houston from regions across America. They exhibit a strong sense of team-work and camaraderie and morale is high within the group. Secondly, our faculty shares a passion for teaching and excellence in patient care. Many of us actively participate in clinical or basic research in the pursuit of improved understanding of disease and optimization of outcome. The faculty aims to be always available without being overbearing in an attempt to foster evidence-based management of patients and encourage independent thinking. We love our jobs! Third, residents get a broad base of experience in general and complicated obstetrics, operative gynecology, ambulatory care and subspecialty services in several Houston hospitals. Our residents receive most of their training at Memorial Hermann Hospital (a private university teaching hospital), but also spend several months at Lyndon Baines Johnson General Hospital (a county teaching hospital), three community hospitals and M.D.Anderson Cancer Center. Finally, the inclusion of a night float system and ½ day per week protected conference time ensures that residents have ample opportunity to read and participate in a structured didactic learning experience.

In summary, the University of Texas Houston Hermann residency training program in Obstetrics and Gynecology is a thriving and vigorous one with sufficient clinical material to ensure technical competence and the development of excellent clinical skills. At the completion of training, residents are able to confidently enter private practice and are actively recruited throughout the nation or they are considered highly competitive for fellowship positions in the top programs in the country.
