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 4 subspecialty ACGME approved fellowships: Complex Family PlanningGynecologic OncologyMaternal Fetal Medicine and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. We currently have 1 subspecialty non-ACGME accredited fellowship: Global and Rural Health. 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

At the University of Washington, UW Medicine and in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, diversity, equity, and inclusion are integral to promoting excellence in research, patient care, teaching and learning. We value and honor diverse experiences and perspectives, strive to create welcoming and respectful learning environments, and promote access, opportunity, and sense of belonging for all without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, citizenship, sex, pregnancy, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, disability, or veteran status.
