The Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (CSMC) main campus, encompassing nearly
24 acres, is located at the intersection of the city of Los Angeles and
the cities of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. The facility is an 877-bed
hospital that serves the Los Angeles area with a primary service area,
comprising some 3.2 million people. Cedars-Sinai is a major teaching
hospital affiliated with the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA.
There are currently 310 residents and clinical fellows at CSMC including a
4-resident-per-year Ob-Gyn residency program.
The CSMC houses the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute, one of
the largest centers of its kind in Southern California, which is staffed
by more than 400 physicians and scientists who are dedicated to the treatment
of adult and pediatric cancer patients. The institute comprises an integrated,
multidisciplinary team of medical oncologists, hematologists, surgical
oncologists, gynecologic oncologists, radiation oncologists and psychiatrists,
as well as other clinical support staff. The Cedars-Sinai Outpatient Cancer
Center, part of the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute, provides
outpatient support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This service allows
patients flexibility in scheduling their cancer therapy to minimize
interruptions in their daily lives.
The Gynecologic Oncology Service includes five gynecologic oncologists
(Drs Karlan, Leuchter, Cass, Li and Walsh), as well as two second-year
residents and an intern along with the gynecologic oncology fellow. The
fellow helps coordinate the day-to-day clinical activities of the service
and participates actively during OR cases as either the primary surgeon or
co-surgeon. The fellow will also attend a weekly multidisciplinary patient
review conference and help organize a weekly Gynecologic Oncology
educational conference.
