Education

Otolaryngology Residency Program

With the goal of being counted among the leading otolaryngology departments in the nation, we focus on state-of-the-art clinical care, research and education in an academic medical center. Applicants to our Otolaryngology Residency program can expect an enlightened, forward-thinking environment that will foster their abilities as a physician, as an agent for ongoing discovery and as a human being. An important feature of our residency program is that it offers an extensive general training in otolaryngology with exposure to fellowship-trained faculty in all subspecialties available in otolaryngology. This has resulted in a high level of clinical case material and resulting training.

Funded visiting Clerkship positions in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery are available at the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) from August through November for select applicants from backgrounds underrepresented in medicine (URiM) or who have a demonstrated vision and commitment to improving the health status of diverse patient populations via patient care, research and/or teaching. The visiting clerkship program is designed to give students an opportunity to experience training at URMC and to connect with faculty, residents, and 4th year medical students. This program is coordinated by the Office of Equity and Inclusion (OEI) and the Office of the Registrar. Only full-time, final year medical students who have completed 3rd year core clerkships may apply. Contact emilye_anderson@urmc.rochester.edu for an application and more information.
