What Training does a OBGYN
Require?
Obstetrics and gynecology
often abbreviated toOB/GYN
are the two surgical
medical specialties dealing with the female reproductive organs
in their pregnant and non-pregnant state, respectively, and as
such are often combined to form a single
medical specialty and postgraduate training program. This
combined training prepares the practicing OB/GYN to be adept at
the surgical management of the entire scope of clinical
pathology involving female reproductive organs, and to provide
care for both pregnantand
non-pregnant patients.
In the United States, four years of residencyis
required. Some OB/GYN surgeons elect to do further subspecialty
training in programs known as fellowships after completing their
residency training, although the majority choose to enter
private or academic practice as general OB/GYNs. Fellowship
training can range from one to four years in duration, and
usually have a research component involved with the clinical and
operative training.
