Program Overview

This residency program is a highly powered three year surgical residency designed to train residents to become fully competent in foot and reconstructive rearfoot/ankle surgery. Residents will exceed minimal surgical volumes and diversity at least three fold. The podiatric surgical department has a busy in-patient service in which the residents are actively involved in patient management. The hospital also provides podiatric medical and surgical experiences through its Foot and Ankle Surgical Clinic. Didactic activities consist of daily medical imaging conferences, weekly didactics, monthly clinical conference, monthly journal club, cadaveric surgery, and skill labs. Past residents have achieved a 100% pass rate on the ABFAS Board Qualified Exam in Foot and RRA.
