Overview

Our faculty and staff oversee all of the OB/GYN core student rotations throughout the WWAMI region. They are exceptional educators who not only teach students, residents, fellows and colleagues locally but also participate in national and international lectures and CME courses.

Our residency program is privileged to recruit some of the most talented trainees in the country. They participate in training at seven different sites which gives them a wealth of experience both in highly academic as well as community settings.

We currently have 3 subspecialty ACGME approved fellowships: Gynecologic Oncology, Family Planning and Maternal Fetal Medicine. Our hope is to add additional fellowships in the next several years.

We also offer Continuing Medical Education opportunities such as the annual Women's Health Update. TEAMM training resources are available for miscarriage management, and our Ultrasound Course is available free on this website to our friends supporting patients around the world.

Our Commitment to Diversity

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Washington is committed to an inclusive environment and to reducing inequities in patient care through education, research, leadership and excellence in clinical care. We strongly believe that diversity enriches training, scientific discovery and promotes the best healthcare.
