Residency

The McGill University Neurology and Neurosurgery Residency Programs have the specific goals of training both clinical neurologists and neurosurgeons and academic clinician-scientists. They are designed to meet requirements in adult neurology, pediatric neurology, and neurosurgery of the Collège des Médecins du Québec and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. 

The programs are university-based and include the neurological and neurosurgical departments of the Neuro, Montreal General Hospital, Montreal Children's Hospital, Glen Hospital (Royal Victoria) and the Sir M.B. Davis - Jewish General Hospital. Residents rotate to each hospital in the course of their training.
