General Surgery Residency

Curriculum

Our surgical residents will be exposed early to the operating room with the advantage of not competing with fellows or chief residents for surgery. General surgery residents participate in a comprehensive didactic program and experience broad range of pathology. They will also be able to experience simulation training in our new SIM lab.
