Mission Statement
The Sisters of Charity Ob/Gyn Residency program prepares residents for their future careers in a supportive learning and working environment. Our program is unique in that it is located at a faith-based community hospital while benefiting from the academic resources and opportunities afforded by our affiliation with the University at Buffalo. We provide an opportunity for residents, including those with traditional religious and moral beliefs, to pursue training in their chosen field and to graduate as compassionate and competent Obstetrician-Gynecologists. These physicians are then able to go forth and serve the patients in our community and throughout the nation who seek and deserve a physician who understands, respects, and supports a faith-based approach to women’s healthcare.
