Welcome to Obstetrics and Gynecology!

he Mission of the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine is to provide medical education and research that prepares globally minded, community-focused physicians and to improve the health of those most in need.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty concerned with the reproductive health and medical needs of adolescents and women.
