Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency
Welcome to the Cedars-Sinai Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency Program! The mission of our training program is to promote reproductive and sexual health of the community by training future professional leaders in Obstetrics and Gynecology to care for patients and communities of all backgrounds and at all stages of their lives.
We provide a diverse and in-depth experience for each resident in terms of clinical, academic, patient population and health system experiences. When residents complete our program, they have the confidence and skills required to enter clinical practice, pursue sub-specialty training, or begin an academic career. We are committed to diversity and inclusion in trainee and faculty recruitment, selection, and retention. We pledge to train physicians who are anti-racist and have cultural humility.
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers a four-year program, which is accredited for seven categorial positions at each level by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
