OB/GYN Residency Program
The University of Missouri-Columbia School of Medicine was founded in 1872, the first publicly supported medical school west of the Mississippi. It has received national and international recognition for all aspects of its patient care, research, and teaching missions. MU medical school alumni include the founder of the Mayo Clinic, William Mayo, and Fred Robbins, Nobel Prize winner for his work on the polio vaccine. The Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency Program was founded February 7, 1954. Since then, many outstanding obstetricians and gynecologists have matriculated through our program, practicing both locally and throughout the United States. C. Clarence Davis served as the first chairman from 1954 to 1957. He transitioned from Johns Hopkins to MU in order to develop an outstanding residency program. Born from a strong clinical emphasis, the program has matured into a world-class academic program with breadth of expertise in research, education, and clinical care. Most of our graduates transition into general private practice, while others obtain additional subspecialty fellowship training. Our residency curriculum is education-focused, using cutting-edge technology including high fidelity surgical and birth simulators. Facts about our program:
