Typical Day on GYN service

Hey everybody,

I'm starting out my residency on GYN and having been trained in a community setting without residents around I really don't know what to expect as the typical day-or what exactly I'll be doing on call. I figure I'll be taking all of the ER calls, assisting in surgery (probably minors starting out)-but other than that the post-op courses are usually not that bad from my experience. Thanks in advance.
