Gynecologic disorders are often in the differential diagnosis on
surgical consultation. To provide a deeper understanding of this
complex field, the Sinai surgical residents will rotate in the Department
of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Sinai Hospital at the end of their 2nd
clinical year.
 To maximize exposure and relevance to the General Surgery resident, the
rotation will be split into 3 weeks of General GYN and 3 weeks of
GYN-Oncology. The resident will participate in the same rotational call
schedule as the 2nd year GYN resident and be exposed to labor and delivery
related issues as well as emergency GYN consults throughout the rotation
when on call.
The Sinai resident will be an integral member of the OB-GYN team, under
the supervision of the senior/chief OB-GYN resident(s) and attending staff
and will be working with experienced OB-GYN mid-level provider(s).
As such, the surgical residents will participate in all care rendered to
inpatient OB-GYN patients at Sinai Hospital, including admission,
consultation and diagnostic work-up, surgical procedures, post-operative
care and discharge, as well as various clinic and attending office
hours.
 Education is a central feature of Sinai's independent GYN residency:
weekly teaching rounds, OB/GYN lecture series, GYN Tumor Board, as mewl as
monthly OB-GYN Journal Club, and GYN Morbidity and Mortality conference.
In addition to this, the GYN faculty will provide lectures on topics
relevant to general surgeons throughout the surgery specialty
curriculum.
