Meet Memorial’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Beginning with the 2020 CaRMS residency application cycle, the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination (MCCQE) Part 1 will replace the Medical Council of Canada Evaluating Examination (MCCEE) as the prerequisite for International Medical Graduates (IMGs) applying for postgraduate medical education in Canada. Please visit Medical Council of Canada website for additional information.

Thank you for your interest in training with us in obstetrics and gynecology! The Memorial University of Newfoundland program is dynamic and unique due to its small size, with close interaction and good rapport between residents and faculty. The program is geared towards producing an excellent generalist in obstetrics and gynecology, although recent years have seen a number of graduates enter competitive subspecialties across North America. Our size allows flexibility to meet resident needs and special interests, which is a high priority for us.

If you have any further questions about our program or what we have to offer, after reading our program profile, please contact our office. Faculty or residents from the program would be pleased to tell you more about what we are like and what we have to offer. A word of warning to candidates from outside of Newfoundland: residents who come from away often get to the end of their training and are too attached to leave “the Rock”!
