Message from the OB/GYN Residency Director

Meet the Program Director: Mychelle Owen, DO, FACOOG

Dear residency candidate,

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in the Parkview Health Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency Program. As Program Director, I am honored to lead a residency program that is deeply committed to developing confident, compassionate, and highly skilled OB/GYN physicians. Our program is built on a strong foundation of clinical excellence, academic rigor, surgical training, and a culture that truly values teamwork and mentorship. At Parkview Health, our residents train in a high-volume, community-based setting that offers the breadth and complexity of pathology and high acuity necessary to prepare graduates for any career path, whether that includes general obstetrics and gynecology practice, fellowship training, hospital-based care, or academic medicine. Our residents are active participants in patient care from day one, gaining progressive autonomy under the guidance of experienced faculty who are invested in their growth.

We are proud to provide:

  • Comprehensive obstetric training, including high-risk and complex maternal care
  • Robust gynecologic surgical experience with minimally invasive and traditional approaches
  • Dedicated rotations in subspecialties including Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Gynecologic Oncology, Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility, and Urogynecology
  • A strong didactic curriculum including a robust SIMS program with protected education time
  • Meaningful research and quality improvement opportunities
  • Leadership opportunities
  • A resident clinic that emphasizes continuity of care
  • A supportive environment that prioritizes wellness and professional development

Beyond clinical training, what truly distinguishes our program is our culture. We are a close-knit group of residents and faculty who value collaboration, respect, and service to our community. Our program is intentionally designed to foster leadership skills, lifelong learning, and advocacy for women’s health. Located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Parkview Health serves a diverse patient population in the region across northeast Indiana, southern Michigan, and northwest Ohio. Residents experience the rewards of practicing in a community-focused health system while benefiting from the resources and innovation of a large regional network. We seek residents who are curious, compassionate, hardworking, and dedicated to advancing women’s health. If you are looking for a program where you will be challenged, supported, and prepared to practice with confidence, we encourage you to learn more about us.

We look forward to connecting with you,

Mychelle Owen, DO, FACOOG
Program Director, OB/GYN
