| Description | The residency-training program in Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery was established at Western University in 1962. Over the years, the program has gained a reputation for excellence in didactic and bedside teaching of residents in a broad spectrum of otolaryngology. Our residents routinely leave the program as highly competent surgeons and consultants in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and have distinguished themselves in academic and community practice in Canada and the United States.
The residency program is a five-year program. In the first 13 blocks there are 4 blocks on service with the remainder off-service. Following this, the subsequent 4 years of training comprise work in Otolaryngology and are spent on-service, except for 3 months of elective time spread over the PGY 2 to 4 years. To date, we have accepted up to three Ontario Ministry of Health funded residents each year. Clinical training takes place at all London teaching hospitals including Victoria and University Campuses of the London Health Sciences Centre and St. Joseph's Health Centre.
