The Surgery Residency and Fellowship Programs at the University of Virginia offer a unique commitment to the housestaff through rigorous clinical experience, dedicated research and a structured curriculum; striving to create the future leaders in academic surgery. Throughout the duration of our clinical programs, residents gain knowledge of pre-operative and post-operative patient care with a strong focus on critical care, develop surgical technical skills, and, most importantly, acquire pre, intra, and post-operative decision making skills.
