    Abstract:
    The first Urology Residency Program in the United States was founded at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in the wake of the first structured surgery residency as established by Dr. William Halsted in the early 20th Century.1 Dr. Hugh Hampton Young was selected to lead the Genitourinary Division and the foundation for the first urology residency training program was established.2 The Brown University Medical School, initially opened in 1811, effectively closed circa 1827, and re-established in the 1970s, has a long tradition in training surgeons.3,4 The Rhode Island Hospital Urology Residency Training Program was organized in the early 1950s and will be explored in this article. Brown University affiliated with the residency program in the mid-1980s to establish the first and only academic urology residency program in Rhode Island. Today, this program provides state-of-the-art urologic care for thousands of patients in the state.
