Students are encouraged to attend one of the live virtual clerkship orientations via Zoom (happen on the first day of every clinical rotation, i.e. "Summer A," "Summer B," etc. Please contact the OB/GYN Clerkship Administrator at obclerk@uw.edu for the link to attend orientation if interested and able to do so. Otherwise, students will need to watch an older, recorded version found here.

WRITE students are required to complete all requirements of this clerkship. Students will need to review this clerkship website, particularly the sections on Requried Assignments and Student Evaluation. 

Hospital Experience

Students will participate in surgical GYN with Dr. Lifson, and surgical OB with the Family Practice/OB physicians. Students will round as needed, seeing post-op patients, inpatients, moms, and well newborns at the hospital with the same team of physicians.
