Gundersen Health System offers surgical obstetrics training to a new resident or a Family Medicine physician practicing inside or outside Gundersen. They are the first organization in Wisconsin to offer this kind of training.
Overview:
The Family Medicine OB Fellowship prepares physicians to deliver full-spectrum obstetric care where it’s needed most. During the year long program, you’ll expand your practice to manage low and high-risk pregnancies and perform operative vaginal and cesarean section births. You’ll learn from skilled clinicians including obstetricians, Family Medicine physicians, midwives and Maternal Fetal Medicine specialists in a world-class teaching hospital as well as a rural clinic to understand the unique needs of practicing in under-resourced communities. Gundersen believes in learning from each other, and they'll look to you to help teach the Family Medicine residents, medical students and regional obstetric providers.
Goals:
Patient care competence:
This fellowship trains physicians to triage obstetric complaints, manage labor; and handle antepartum, labor and postpartum complications, as well as manage high-risk pregnancies, first-trimester bleeding and miscarriage.
Procedural competence:
You’ll finish the fellowship prepared to handle vaginal deliveries, including vaginal deliveries after cesarean section, vacuum-assisted vaginal deliveries, cesarean sections, dilation and curettages, and repair of perineal and vaginal lacerations.
