Program Overview
Here at Rochester General Hospital, located in the beautiful Finger Lakes Region of Western NY, you will find yourself being offered chances to learn first-hand from top-notch medical and surgical specialists. Podiatric residents fully participate as an integral part of the surgical and medical teams. Our residents are exposed to 4 hospitals and 2 surgical centers. Our residents also cover emergency room calls and run a core faculty-based limb salvaged clinic. Rochester General Hospital’s podiatric residency program stresses a hands-on and interactive approach to learning. Residents participate in monthly journal clubs as well as weekly Tuesday academics. We are approved by the Council on Podiatric Medical Education for a 36-month PMSR/RRA program. We offer credentialing in reconstructive forefoot and rear-foot/ankle surgery.
We look forward to working with residents with a desire to learn and thrive along with our program.
