Rotations
Our five-year curriculum offers graduated, structured training in both the science and practice of surgery. Residents are immersed in a broad range of surgical specialties while developing the skills and knowledge essential for independent surgical practice.
PGY-1 & PGY-2: Foundational Years
The first two years emphasize building a solid base in surgical principles through high-volume clinical exposure across a range of subspecialties, including:
- Colorectal Surgery
- Surgical Oncology
- Transplant Surgery
- Vascular Surgery
- Trauma & Critical Care (including Burn)
PGY-3 to PGY-5: Advanced Surgical Training
In the final three years, residents engage in in-depth operative and clinical experiences across all major areas of general surgery, with increased autonomy and responsibility. Areas of focus include:
- General Surgery
- Breast Surgery
- Laparoscopic, Endoscopic & Robotic Surgery
- Trauma & Surgical Critical Care
- Vascular Surgery
- Cardiothoracic Surgery
Residents also benefit from a dedicated elective rotation during their PGY-3 year, allowing them to explore specific interests or surgical subspecialties in greater depth.
