The Los Angeles County/USC Medical Center (LAC/USC-MC) is one of the largest regional medical centers and teaching hospitals in the United States, consisting of four major hospitals and several outpatient service facilities on one campus. Unit I, the main hospital, houses over 2,000 beds (600 active) and is a Level I Trauma Center. 850 residents are in full-time training under the guidance of 450 full-time faculty members. There are 50,000 inpatients admitted and 750,000 outpatients visited annually at this medical center. In 2002, it has also become the designated US Naval Trauma Training Center. Our outpatient dental facility recorded over 14,000 patient visits last year, consisting of all aspects of outpatient procedures. The clinic is a wealth of study cases as well as an avenue for valuable surgical experiences. This pool of patients gives us the opportunity to evaluate and treat a wide range oral and maxillofacial surgery problems.
Established in 1897, the USC School of Dentistry is a private professional school with a unique heritage and an international reputation. The dental school provides to our department professional contacts with all of our dental colleagues (all graduate dental specialties are represented at USC). This offers to us valuable contributions from other sectors and disciplines of dentistry. Residents will have rotations at the dental school performing dentoalveolar and implants procedures as well as gaining intravenous sedation/anesthesia and teaching experiences. The Department of Orthodontics is an integral part of our training program providing a biweekly scheduled orthognathic conference with our department.
USC University Hospital is a private, 293-bed research and teaching hospital staffed by the attending faculty of the USC Keck School of Medicine and the LAC/ USC Medical Center. The hospital offers top medical expertise and sophisticated technology. Patients receive personal care and access to some of the most advanced technological services available at this comfortable environment. Our senior residents participate in operating room surgeries and other consultation services at this hospital. USC University Hospital is poised for growth as it prepares for the addition of a new 10-story tower, expected to open in 2004.
Long Beach Memorial Medical Center is the second largest private hospital on the west coast. Now in its 90th year, the medical center is nationally recognized for excellence in health care. A comprehensive medical campus, LBMMC combines the resources of these major entities: Memorial Hospital; Miller Children’s Hospital; Memorial Women’s Hospital; Memorial Rehabilitation Hospital; Memorial Heart Institute and Memorial Cancer Institute. Our department is one of the many surgical services represented at this center. Our senior residents staff mainly at the Miller Children’s Hospital during their rotation there.
Our service is part of the craniofacial & cleft palate team at the Children Hospital of Los Angeles. The team includes representatives from plastics surgery, physical therapy, speech therapy, orthodontics and general dentistry. Our senior residents gained surgical experiences in reconstruction, orthognathics, pediatrics, pathology and dentoalveolar at this facility.
One of the best rehabilitation centers in the nation. Our residents provide in house oral and maxillofacial consultation services and surgical treatment. |
