McMaster University is recognized world-wide as a leader in both gastrointestinal research and clinical practice. We take pride in our outstanding faculty and the positive training environment we provide. The Adult Gastroenterology Training Program is a two-year program accredited by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC).

Through a series of inpatient and outpatient rotations and generous elective time, trainees gain a broad exposure to clinical gastroenterology and training in all CANMEDS competencies endorsed by the RCPSC. Trainees gain a solid grounding in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of gastrointestinal disorders with dedicated training in nutrition, motility and endoscopy. Trainees have access to state-of-the-art equipment, including a dedicated endoscopy simulator. An endoscopy course for new gastroenterology residents from across Canada is hosted in Hamilton each year by the Division of Gastroenterology.
