Obstetrics/Gynecology
Residency Program
Curriculum - Descriptions of Rotations
First-Year Residency
For three months, residents rotate through outpatient ambulatory
medicine clinics sponsored by Sentara Norfolk General Hospital (SNGH)
and participate in weekly half day Continuity Care Clinics.
Second-Year Residency
Residents rotate through outpatient general obstetrics and gynecology
clinics and continue their second year of participation in Continuity
Care Clinics where they perform well women examinations and manage
common gynecologic and non-gynecologic complaints.
Third-Year Residency
Primary care experience is limited to the Continuity Care Clinics. The
third year resident continues to manage the panel of patients they
followed during their first and second year.
Fourth-Year Residency
Fourth-year residents assume leadership roles in Continuity Care Clinics
while under the direct supervision of faculty attendings. At this point,
chief residents assume greater responsibility in caring for patients and
in teaching junior residents and medical students. They help coordinate
Continuity Care Clinics, thus creating a continuum of continuity care
training in the chief year.
