Obstetrics & Gynecology at Oakland

Welcome

More than 50 years ago, Kaiser Oakland became the first ever Kaiser patient care facility. In 1947, shortly after opening its doors for patient care, Kaiser Oakland instituted a residency-training program in Obstetrics and Gynecology. The primary mission of the Obstetrics/Gynecology residency program at Kaiser Permanente Oakland is to provide a superior post-graduate medical education experience. Residents are given clear guidelines regarding the material they are expected to learn and they are taught in multiple formats including:

• Patient care
• Didactic lectures
• Case conferences
• National meetings
• Web-based learning
• CREOG examinations
• Mock Oral Exam
• Critical Event Training
• Surgical Simulation

Our program fills four categorical positions each year. We have high expectations for our residents and our selection process is very competitive.

Residents rotate through Kaiser Permanente clinics in Oakland and Richmond. Kaiser Permanente Richmond is the location for minor and major gynecologic procedures. All inpatient obstetrical care for the two campuses takes place at Kaiser Oakland.
