What is your favorite part of being a resident at SLU?
When searching for the 鈥渂est fit鈥� program, I was drawn to SLU for its camaraderie. You will graduate a competent OB-GYN from just about any program, but not all programs will have the positive culture that SLU upholds. When working the hours OB-GYNs work in addition to the stress that comes with the job, it's important to find co-residents who will step up when needed and support each other.  That鈥檚 exactly what I鈥檝e found here.
