Obstetrics and gynecology is like no other medical specialty. It blends the cognitive skills of internal medicine with the challenges of surgery, allows for the subspecialty areas to blend with primary care skills and allows the physician to care for the complete patient. The University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita's Obstetrics & Gynecology Residency Program integrates education in the specialty with the service needed to develop and refine clinical and interpersonal skills. It also presents the opportunity to actively participate in state-of-the-art clinical and biochemical research. The program prepares residents for private practice, academic pursuits or subspecialty training.
