Continuing Education

Visiting Professor Program

The Visiting Professor Program of the University of Cincinnati Department of Surgery is extremely important for the education of both the faculty and the residents. It gives the residents a first-hand opportunity to come into contact with the greats in American surgery, participate with them in the Operating Room, make Ward Rounds with them, and get to know them as individuals at various luncheons and social gatherings. In addition, they hear two lectures, the first at Surgical Grand Rounds and the second at the Cincinnati Surgical Society, on work which is up-to-date and at the cutting edge of American surgery.
