Our residency program is focused on mentorship from the Match through Chief year and beyond. Mentors play roles in many ways- adapting to residency, work-life balance, academic progression and scholarship:
- PGY1 residents are paired with a Midwife mentor and PGY3 mentor
- PGY2-4 residents choose a Hospital based Faculty mentor and Community based Faculty mentor
- Hospital and Community based Faculty mentors change year to year with the goal of developing a mentorship family by the end of residency
- Research mentors aid in the completion and publication of Resident Research Projects
A Longitudinal mentor serves as a mentor for the entire class over 4 years of residency, with protected time to get together outside of work as a class
