The goals of this rotation are to allow the students to observe and participate in the clinical management of obstetric and gynecologic patients.

During the rotation the students will be given the opportunity to observe and participate in management of outpatient and in-hospital obstetrics and gynecological patients particularly in urban, underserved areas.

Upon completion of the rotation, the students will be able to recognize, manage, and treat common obstetrical and gynecological problems.  The students should be able to perform normal vaginal deliveries and do D&C's, cervical biopsies.  They should also perform pelvic exams and office management of obstetric and gynecologic conditions.

MS3 students must contact the course coordinator for permission prior to registering.
