Obstetrics and Gynecology

Residency Program

Applicant Information

Applications are only accepted through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). It is the candidates’ responsibility to make sure that all required documents submitted through ERAS reach our program successfully by the deadline of November 1 of each year.  Due to the competitiveness of candidates applying to our program, we are unable to accept applications submitted after this deadline.

Applications will be accepted from all graduates of US medical schools accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME).  The Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) serves as the ERAS coordinator for foreign medical graduates.  Refer to the ERAS web site for more information (http://www.aamc.org/eras).

This program requires three letters of recommendation. Letters of recommendation may come from faculty in your medical school or those programs where you have rotated, such as from the Chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology of your medical school, from a faculty member outside of OB-GYN (i.e., Medicine or Surgery), and from any faculty member who has most directly observed your clinical and surgical work.

Letters of recommendation should be addressed to our Residency Program Director, Ruben Alvero, MD.  Candidates must request the National Board of Medical Examiners to transmit NBME, USMLE or ECFMG transcripts to us through ERAS.

Invitations for on-site interviews will be issued once our Residency Selection Committee has reviewed all applications.  Interviews are scheduled during December and next January.
