Program Identity & Fit

Creighton's OB/GYN residency is a university-based, Jesuit Catholic program in Omaha training 18 residents (growing to 20) at CHI Health Creighton University Medical Center - Bergan Mercy, with a mission explicitly grounded in cura personalis and care for the whole patient. The program's stated aims emphasize training culturally competent physicians who focus on the underserved and address social determinants of health, alongside surgical skill development across multi-site training opportunities and generation of "lifelong learners" through scholarly activity and quality/safety-focused didactics. Resident life reflects an intentional community-building culture (retreats, banquets, wellness week, journal clubs) layered onto a Catholic institutional identity that shapes clinical practice patterns. The program values whole-person patient care, mentorship of medical students, and resident wellness within a values-driven institutional framework rather than positioning itself as a high-volume subspecialty or fellowship pipeline.

Who it fits

An applicant whose ERAS narrative centers on service to underserved women's health populations, comfort practicing within a faith-based/Catholic clinical mission, and a holistic, mentorship-oriented approach to patient care and medical education.

Research intensity

Moderate - scholarly activity and quality/safety-related didactics are encouraged as part of resident development, but research is not positioned as central to the program's identity.

Career orientation

Mixed - Community Practice, Academic Medicine

Important

One of three required letters must be a Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE), and one of the letters must come from the Chair or designee of the applicant's Department of (Ob)Gyn/Medicine.
