Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology

The UNM School of Medicine Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is dedicated to improving health equity for women and girls, particularly in underserved and rural communities. As the only academic medical center in New Mexico, we are a referral center for complex obstetrical and gynecological cases throughout the Southwest.

We offer compassionate patient care expertise and top-tier clinical training. Residents and fellows who train in Albuquerque and our clinical centers throughout the state graduate prepared for fulfilling OB/GYN careers.

Our department is staffed by nationally recognized faculty clinicians and researchers, including specialists in complex family planning, female cancers, female incontinence and prolapse, high-risk pregnancy, midwifery, and minimally invasive surgery.

Life in the Duke City

Albuquerque, the state's largest city, basks in 310 days of sunshine, combined with a mild, dry climate, four distinct seasons, and year-round low humidity.

The University of New Mexico campus is centrally located among pleasant and convenient neighborhoods, nestled at the base of the majestic Sandia Mountains.

New Mexico - Land of Enchantment

Our special blend of cultures - Native American, Hispanic, Western, and more - come together to create a vibrant mix of art, music, and food found nowhere else in the country.

Daily walks throughout the year provide you with mini snapshots of New Mexican beauty - electric colors of blooming cacti and wildflowers in the spring, roadrunners darting around in the summer, hot air balloons overhead in the autumn, luminarias lighting your path in the winter - all set against the backdrop of award-winning southwest architecture.
