3-Year Fellowship Program in Gynecologic Oncology

The David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and Cedars Sinai Medical Center offer a three-year fellowship in gynecologic oncology. The program is designed to train academically oriented gynecologic oncologists and is approved for five fellowship positions.

Since its inception in the mid 1970s under the auspices of Dr. Leo Lagasse, one of the pioneers and early leaders in the discipline as well as a past president of the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists and director of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the program has strived to train superb abdomino-pelvic surgeons, committed scientists and leaders in the field of women.s cancer.

The fellows spend two years rotating through three separate sites, UCLA which includes time spent at the Olive View/UCLA Medical Center, Cedars Sinai Medical Center and the Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center. This affords the fellows an opportunity to work and operate with 14 gynecologic oncologists, an unparalleled surgical training opportunity that will expose them to the full complement of surgical techniques from minimally invasive and robotic procedures, to fertility sparing and ultra radical surgeries.

The UCLA/Cedars Sinai Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship also includes one year of research and discovery. The program is in the unique position of harboring four leading clinician scientists with independent laboratories that will offer the fellows an outstanding platform for development and mentorship.
