Program Overview

Metrowest has been approved as a PMSR-RRA certified program. The Podiatric Residency Program has been in existence for over 20 years. All residents participate in a vast number of non-podiatric rotations. The residents are exposed to a large amount of trauma and surgery during the core rotations of ED, Podiatry/Orthopedics. Each year residents participate in the Operation Footprint, a medical mission in Honduras, per approval of director (pending COVID-19 guidelines, deferred for 2 years). Residents are exposed to many rearfoot surgeries including ankle fractures, calcaneal fractures, clubfoot reconstruction, flatfoot reconstruction, etc. This program is well balanced surgically as well as clinically. MetroWest Medical Center currently requires a $15 application fee. An application is not considered complete until the fee is received which is non-refundable.
