Program Info
The atmosphere of the department is one of dedication to the residents' education. There are 45 full time faculty members in cardiothoracic, general, plastic and reconstructive, vascular, oncology, trauma and critical care, and surgical rehabilitation. Other subspecialty surgical services are staffed by clinical faculty who participate in the educational programs. In general surgery, the residents are assigned to one of these teams with four to five faculty members on each team. These teams hold preoperative and postoperative clinic hours together, operate together at scheduled times, and thereby assure the residents continuity of care. On the other services, the residents work closely with the faculty attendings on a daily basis, involving themselves in all aspects of the patients' care.
