Hackensack Meridian Health-Hackensack University Medical Center Program

Program Identity & Fit

Hackensack University Medical Center's OB/GYN residency is a large (16 categorical positions), university-affiliated program based at a nationally recognized quaternary care institution with a dedicated Women's Hospital, adjacent NICU, and subspecialty divisions spanning MFM, REI, Gyn Oncology, FPMRS, and Family Planning, supported by a departmental Research Division. Its integration of over 80 community-based physicians alongside full-time academic faculty creates a hybrid training environment blending high-acuity tertiary/quaternary obstetric and gynecologic care with community-based clinical exposure. Recent graduate outcomes show a mixed distribution across community and private practice, academic practice at Hackensack, and subspecialty fellowships (MFM, FPMRS), indicating the program supports both generalist and subspecialist career paths without privileging one track. The program explicitly states it seeks highly-motivated, patient-centered, team-oriented residents who want an active voice in shaping their own training experience.
