Hi Everyone!!
Ok, Im guilty of falling victim to the board inspired fears again. I was wondering, I would really like to obtain a residency in OBGYN with a subspecialty in RE (reproductive endocrinology). Will this be difficult for me to pursue as a DO? Are these mostly allopathic residencies? Is RE and OBGYN very competitive? Are there osteo residency slots for these specialties? I know that to be an RE you have to get the special licensing to be laparoscopy certified etc etc, is this ANOTHER residency that is competitive or just a certification class?
Sorry for all these questions but I'm starting NYCOM in August and I want to be sure that this will be an option for me upon graduation.
Thank you all vey much for any responses
