Urology Residency Program
Resident Testimonial: Alexis Steinmetz
Our residency program consists of one full year of funded research at the PGY4 level and 5 years of clinical training in all aspects of urology. We are a leader in the field of simulation with a robust simulation curriculum utilizing high fidelity simulation platforms made on site.
Some of the strengths and highlights of this program are:
- We are one of only a handful of programs that have a dedicated Xi robot housed in a mock operating room utilized only for resident training
- Our residents finish with excellent surgical skills and judgment, including superior robotic experience
- Our graduates who decide to continue their education place in highly competitive and prestigious fellowship programs
- We have a very team oriented, collegial environment with emphasis placed on resident well-
being.
