Welcome to Graduate Medical Education at the University of Rochester.  The purpose of GME is to provide an organized educational program with guidance and supervision of the resident, facilitating the resident's professional and personal development while ensuring safe and appropriate care for patients.  We are committed to excellence in both education and medical care.  Our commitment is exhibited by providing leadership and resources to enable the institution to achieve substantial compliance with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)'s Institutional Requirements and to enable the educational programs to achieve substantial compliance with Program Requirements.  This includes providing an ethical and professional environment in which the educational curricular requirements, as well as the applicable requirements for scholarly activity can be met.  The regular assessment of the quality of the educational programs is an essential component of this commitment.

The GME Office and the GME Committee oversees all residency programs sponsored by the University of Rochester.  Dr. Diane Hartmann is the designated institutional official (DIO) who has the authority and the responsibility for the oversight and administration of the GME programs.  If you as a trainee have concerns with your educational experience that are not resolved at the level of your program, please contact Dr. Hartmann for assistance.  Dr. Hartmann signs off on all major correspondence sent to the ACGME by all University of Rochester residency/fellowship programs. 

The GME Office has an open-door policy and welcomes your suggestions regarding improvements to your educational experience at the University of Rochester.
