Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery Fellowship
Program Descripton
This ACGME-accredited one-year clinical fellowship program revolves around a mentorship model, where fellows are paired with full-time pediatric orthopedic surgeons in the clinic and operating room. Fellows are expected to initiate, with guidance from faculty, two research projects with the goal of publication in a peer-reviewed journal by the end of their fellowship year. Other expectations include attending weekly conferences and monthly journal clubs, and taking call.
The fellowship is based at a nationally recognized, free-standing, academic, tertiary care children's hospital that is affiliated with the University of Washington School of Medicine, both of which have been highly ranked for many years by U.S. News & World Report. The clinical and research resources for the department are well-established and dedicated to the education of our fellows.
