University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center Program

Program Identity & Fit

The OU Health Sciences Center OB/GYN residency is a university-affiliated academic program based in Oklahoma City, functioning as the region's tertiary referral and safety-net training site for the state of Oklahoma, drawing a complex, high-acuity obstetric and gynecologic population including maternal-fetal medicine transfers and underserved patients from across a largely rural state. As an academic medical center program, it is structured to prepare residents for both generalist practice and fellowship subspecialization, with exposure across the full breadth of obstetrics, gynecologic surgery, gynecologic oncology, urogynecology, MFM, and reproductive endocrinology inherent to a university department housing these divisions. The program sits within a comprehensive academic health center with substantial institutional research infrastructure, positioning scholarly activity as an available and expected component of training rather than a peripheral add-on. Given its role as Oklahoma's principal academic OB/GYN training site, the program appears to value residents comfortable serving as a referral hub for complex and underserved obstetric/gynecologic care across a wide catchment area.
