| The Twin Cities Integrated Residency
in Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women's Health
As the only OB/GYN residency in the Twin Cities—and one of only two programs in the state—our residents are in a unique position to take advantage of one of the best healthcare environments in the country. They work with some of the finest physicians, surgeons and researchers in the area. With rotations at six hospitals, they have access to thousands of births, major and minor surgeries, and specialty cases in gynecologic oncology, maternal-fetal medicine, reproductive endocrinology, mature women’s health and urogynecology. Because of their wide range of training opportunities, our residents are highly recruited by practices in and outside of Minnesota. Our graduates repeatedly tell us that this residency prepared them extremely well for life in their OB/GYN practice. We also have an excellent record of placing our residents in fellowships across the country.
Weekly didactics and hands-on skills training, as well as funding and support for resident research, make this residency program a comprehensive learning experience at one of the nation’s premier research universities. We are also fortunate to have the new Deborah E. Powell Center for Women’s Health, a Nationally Designated Center of Excellence, www.womenshealth.umn.edu on our campus. The University was chosen as a National Center of Excellence in Women’s Health site because of its breadth and depth in clinical care for women, research, education and community outreach. Because this is the only research-intensive medical school with a woman dean, the University is specially positioned to mentor women students and faculty.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our residency program. I think you’ll see that the Twin Cities Integrated Residency combines the best elements of many learning and clinical opportunities.
Sincerely,
Linda F. Carson, M.D.
Professor and Chair
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Women's Health
