Prisma Health-University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville Greenville Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a longstanding (75-year) university-affiliated academic program based at Prisma Health Greenville, the largest health system in South Carolina, serving as a high-volume, high-acuity referral center for a broad catchment area with an active Level III NICU and MFM service. The program supports two in-house fellowships (MFM, MIGS) plus a planned REI fellowship, an MFMU trials site designation, active NIH R01 funding, and a mandatory longitudinal resident research project culminating in an annual symposium, reflecting genuine investment in scholarly output alongside clinical training. Surgical education is emphasized structurally, with residents exceeding ACGME hysterectomy minimums and a dedicated robotic curriculum leading to post-graduation privileging, while graduated autonomy is built explicitly into PGY-3/4 chief roles across L&D, night float, and GYN oncology services. The program explicitly frames itself as producing both community generalists and fellowship-bound subspecialists, values a tight-knit "family" culture and faculty mentorship (pod system), and is actively working to diversify its resident and faculty composition.
