Otolaryngology – Head + Neck Surgery Residency Program - Training Experience

Training Experience

Comprehensive clinical + surgical ENT training at Tufts Medical Center

Our residents gain comprehensive clinical and surgical experience across multiple top hospitals, including Tufts Medical Center, Boston Children’s Hospital and Rhode Island Hospital. This diverse exposure ensures hands-on learning in both adult and pediatric otolaryngology, covering a wide range of subspecialties such as head and neck oncology, facial plastics, otology, rhinology and laryngology.

The program emphasizes early operative experience and progressive responsibility, allowing residents to build confidence and develop advanced surgical skills throughout their five-year training. A dedicated research block during the third year offers protected time to pursue scholarly projects with mentorship from experienced faculty.

Residents also participate in multidisciplinary care teams that collaborate closely with other specialties, enhancing both clinical knowledge and patient care skills. This training approach prepares residents to excel in academic settings, competitive fellowships or independent practice.
