Mission
The FSU Sponsored OB/GYN Residency Program at Ascension Sacred Heart's mission is to strive to improve health care in Florida, our nation, and the world through excellence and consistently superior leadership in education, clinical care, discovery, and service. To support our institution’s mission, the Residency Program will educate and develop exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care, discover and advance knowledge, and are responsive to community needs of Northwest Florida and Southeast Alabama, with service to elder, rural, minority, and vulnerable populations.
Our Residency Program’s mission is to train well-rounded, obstetric and gynecologic generalists who consistently model Florida State University’s expectation for clinical excellence, superior leadership, and compassionate care in a region of most need. We also are mission minded in our care and service to the elder, rural, minority, and vulnerable populations in Northwest Florida and Southeast Alabama where no access to obstetric and gynecologic care is available in many counties. For the Residency Program’s mission, our educational program improves obstetric care and gynecologic health in our region.
Our focus is community care educational training in an underserved region. The training of our resident physicians places emphasis on academic, clinical, and surgical excellence within the community setting which meets the standards of our university. We focus on recognizing and combating health disparities of our region and providing university-level care in a region that otherwise would not have access.
