"This program gives you great operative experience, starting in the first year. I'm very confident that when I finish, my surgical skills will be solid and I'll be ready to begin independent practice. But because this is a university program, I will also be qualified to pursue a fellowship, if that is what I decide to do. This is an environment that values and emphasizes education. Residents here are respected."

"Residents here assume a lot of responsibility for patient care, and perform a wide variety of cases. This helps us to develop confidence and professional maturity. Our faculty are a combination of academically-oriented surgeons with very strong research and scholarship skills, and private-practice surgeons with very strong operative skills."
