Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology
at The Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina
University offers a four-year, fully accredited
residency in obstetrics and gynecology. In
addition, we provide quality medical student
education.
Each year 10-15% of our
medical students accept residency positions
in Ob/Gyn. Our Ob/Gyn residency is directed
at producing strong clinicians with the skills,
knowledge base and critical thinking skills
to practice general Ob/Gyn. The Department
of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers specific
expertise in endocrine/infertility, maternal-fetal
medicine, urogynecology, and gynecologic
oncology. Our clinical volumes include about
3200 deliveries per year, 600-650 maternal
transports per year, 200-250 new cases of
cancer per year, and an in-vitro program
doing 80-100 cycles per year.
While
considerable experience and training is found
in the tertiary care nature of our affiliated
hospital, Pitt County Memorial Hospital,
primary care for women remains a central
mission of our educational program. I want
our residents and students to recognize Ob/Gyn
practitioners as the experts in the care
of women. An essential part of that process
is the exposure to enthusiastic, competent,
general practitioners of obstetrics and gynecology.
We have a core group of academic clinicians
to support our mission.
In summary,
the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology
offers a strong educational experience in
clinical medicine. We have a good balance
between primary care and tertiary care services.
The medical student and the Ob/Gyn resident
will graduate from our programs confident
in their clinical knowledge and surgical
skills in obstetrics and gynecology.
Department of Pediatrics
Our service
to children of all ages is making a difference

advanced technology to support tiny premature
babies during the first critical weeks of
life and the skills to prov
