Jefferson Health Medical Education-Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a four-year academic OB-GYN residency based at Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital, one of the city's last remaining safety-net hospitals, serving a high-acuity, socioeconomically diverse inner-city population in North Philadelphia. The program emphasizes full-scope generalist obstetric and gynecologic care with high clinical volume (over 4,000 deliveries and 4,000 major/minor gynecologic surgeries annually), alongside a robust DaVinci robotic minimally invasive surgery curriculum and expansion to a suburban Montgomery campus for broadened socioeconomic exposure. Subspecialty depth is achieved through structured affiliations with RMA Philadelphia for REI and Fox Chase Cancer Center for gynecologic oncology, giving residents exposure to complex surgical oncology cases beyond the home institution. Research is framed as clinical, quality-improvement, and training-focused rather than basic science, and the program explicitly values culturally competent physicians prepared to serve underserved, complex communities.
