We instill the principles essential for outstanding patient care, technical innovation and scientific inquiry, and provide an educational foundation that prepares our residents for both the current landscape of urology and to shape the future of the field. We are committed to a rigorous academic program with a diverse team designed to provide compassionate, collaborative, and equitable care and reduce disparities across our workforce and the patients we serve.

Educational opportunities for the residents have been enhanced by our 30 full-time faculty members. The Department of Urology supports a training program of 22 residents, having been approved by the ACGME for 4 residents per PGY level. The training consists of 4 years as an Assistant Resident Surgeon, 1 year of designated Research, and a final year as Chief Resident.
