General Surgery Residency
At A Glance
Each resident graduates with 950-1200 cases.
We rotate at 7 different hospitals throughout residency. All locations are within a 20 minute drive from each other, and 3 are on the same medical campus. You are only responsible for the patients at your rotation hospital.
Residents have 4 hours a week of protected didactic time; the first hour is Departmental Grand Rounds.
Buffalo is known for its snow, but dig a little deeper and you’ll discover that our region enjoys four distinct seasons, each remarkable in its own right.
Pronounced “the best planned city in America” by Frederick Law Olmsted, and often billed as the “20-minute city” for its easy accessibility, Buffalo’s world-class design makes getting around a snap.
In a city as diverse as Buffalo, you can always find something fun to do, whether it’s taking a leisurely walk in one of our glorious Olmsted-designed parks or taking in a thought-provoking work of art at one of dozens of galleries.
