For over a century, the Department of OB/GYN/RS at Temple University has provided clinical care to patients from our surrounding communities in an environment of dignity and respect, providing great expertise in high risk obstetric care and the latest advances and technologies in gynecological care. As an academic and teaching institution our faculty and trainees are involved in research and education. We have a thriving 25 residency training program and we are the core site for the Lewis Katz School of Medicine medical students. We have representation of all subspecialties in OB/GYN and a fellowship in Gynecologic Oncology.

Temple University Hospital delivers over 2100 babies a year, with dedicated OB anesthesia and prenatal services in addition to our general OB/GYN and MFM staff. We have a hospitalist service dedicated exclusively to provision of Labor & Delivery care. Babies requiring surgery are cared for at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children.

Over 1400 gynecologic surgical procedures are performed at Temple University Hospital every year, including general gynecologic procedures, minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic and robotic assisted), hysteroscopy, radical abdominal/pelvic procedures for malignancy and pelvic reconstructive surgery. The Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University and the multiple hospitals including Fox Chase Cancer Center, part of the Temple Health System, make our institution uniquely positioned to provide intensive, high technology to complicated obstetrical and gynecological patients.
