Program Philosophy

Our goal is to provide outstanding clinical training leading to board certification and preparation to function as a community leader and advocate of health care for women.

Good Samaritan's OB/GYN  Residency Program has had continuous accreditation since 1951, and the program is in compliance with all ACGME requirements. At the most recent RRC site visit, the program was fully accredited and approved for four years.      

The residency program in obstetrics and gynecology is fundamentally a four-year program for those individuals who start immediately following successful completion of medical school. The program functions on a single campus and accepts eight categorical residents each year for a total of 32 residents.

We expect first-year residents to complete the full four years. There is no pyramid system.
