About This Program
Taking place almost exclusively at West Penn Hospital, our blended academic/community-based residency offers robust clinical volume in normal & high-risk obstetrics, gynecology, and gynecologic subspecialties. A Ryan Foundation Program since 2017, we are committed to providing exceptional education in family planning care. We provide complex family planning services for many women in the region in our own institution as well as two freestanding clinics.
