After 13 years with the novel curriculum, resident case numbers and In-Service Examination scores remained similar while faculty/resident satisfaction increased. Direct control of general surgery rotations enabled adjustments based on educational rationale. These results demonstrate that a urology-directed and flexible residency program can be instituted without compromising learner outcomes.
