How to Apply

We aim to train highly qualified, community-focused physicians for our region and state. We recruit fellows likely to succeed in our programs and whose academic records, including licensure examinations and/or class rank, demonstrate success and predict attainment of specialty certification following fellowship completion.

The Orthopaedic Trauma Fellowship Match was established in 2008. Its goal is to coordinate fellowship appointments, thus relieving the pressure of uncoordinated appointments and forced early choices.
