OBGYN Residents Talking

Obstetrics and Gynecology excels in its three-part mission to be a leader in teaching, research, and patient care.

You’ll benefit from exposure to renowned faculty members who are committed to your growth and development.

We have a strong reputation nationally, built on close to a century of providing outstanding training programs.

Our residents train in all areas of ob/gyn specialties in inpatient and outpatient experiences, including an extensive family planning program and a variety of gynecologic surgery opportunities that emphasize minimally invasive surgery.

As mentors, our faculty-researchers will help you follow your scholarly passions through a comprehensive research project and opportunities for presenting your research in scholarly settings.

Our program is committed to providing quality health care to women in all parts of the world. Our residents have opportunities to volunteer in underserved areas in the United States and abroad.

As Iowa’s only obstetrics and gynecology residency program, we are able to extend our services throughout the state, handling a breadth of complex cases among a diverse patient population.
