Abstract

This article aims to describe contemporary parental leave among obstetrics and gynecology trainees and early-career faculty. Here, we present results of a survey that collected information about parental leave policies and contemporary practice, as well as beliefs about surgical and clinical experience for those who take leave. Faculty and trainees were equally well represented among respondents, with half of each group self-identifying as a parent. Most reported that childbearing trainees currently take 6 weeks or less of parental leave and believed that childbearing and nonchildbearing residents should be able to take 12 weeks of leave without extending training.
