The Residency Program in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Lankenau Hospital is under the direction of Nancy S. Roberts, MD, who is also Chairman of Ob/Gyn for Main Line Health hospitals. The daily operations of the program are managed by Assoicate Director Beverly M. Vaughn, MD. All of the attending staff are board-certified or eligible, and many have faculty appointments either at Jefferson Medical College or at other Philadelphia-area medical schools. There are six physicians who are part-time salaried for their educational activities. Our subspecialists include four perinatologists, two gynecologic oncologists and three reproductive endocrinologists. The majority of the 31 Ob/Gyn staff have their offices within the hospital complex.

Meet The Chairman/Director...

"This is a residency program that trains physicians of the future. We provide a well-balanced educational program in all aspects of Obstetrics and Gynecology, affording the residents ample opportunity to become facile at gynecologic surgery, knowledgeable about the science of reproductive health, and truly caring clinicians. Lankenau's program is steeped in tradition with over 45 years of confident and well-trained graduates of our program, now practicing in many areas of this country. Our current residents are poised to become the future leaders in this field as they carry a strong platform of knowledge and skill into their future careers."

Meet The Ob/Gyn Residency Program Clinic Faculty...

"Lankenau has always enjoyed a reputation for training excellent physicians. Our program offers not only strong experience in general ob/gyn, but in maternal fetal medicine, gyn onc, REI and urogyn as well. The residents receive instruction -- in advanced laparoscopy (including robotics), advanced hysteroscopy and newer techniques of pelvic floor reconstruction. The learning at Lankenau is both hands on and didactic. Our association with the Lankenau Institute of Medical Research allows for research which is not usually found ina community hospital. We understand the value of providing multiple educational opportunities."

"The richness of our residency is enhanced by the diversity of the patients that the hospital serves. Lankenau draws patients from the suburbs and Philadelphia. The quality of our specialists als makes it a referral institution in the region. Lankenau is a great place to train and begin your career as an obsetrician/gynecologist. The skills that you develop here will allow you to practice in the community or continue your training in a fellowship. I am honored to be a part of this vibrant program."

Meet The Coordinators...

"My standard question to graduates who stay in touch, and most do, is whether they feel comfortable in private practice or academics after residency. In the 35 years I have been Lankenau's Ob/Gyn residency coordinator, the reactions have been of overwhelming gratitude for their Lankenau training."

-- Ann Jervis; Manager, Ob/Gyn Residency Program

-- Rosemarie Weisenbach, RN; Assistant Manager/Coordinator
