ABOUT ORTHOFELLOW

Better evidence for a life-shaping fellowship decision.

OrthoFellow is an independent global directory that turns fragmented fellowship information into structured, source-linked decision support—so surgeons can compare training, eligibility, timing, funding and application routes before continuing to the official institution.

WHY IT EXISTS

A global search deserves more than scattered tabs and old PDFs.

A fellowship can shape a surgeon's clinical practice, research direction, professional network and family life. Yet the information needed to make that decision is often spread across hospital pages, society directories, PDFs and personal networks.

OrthoFellow exists to make that search more transparent and comparable. It is a research and navigation layer—not a replacement for the official programme, an employing institution, a regulator or individual professional advice.

OUR EDITORIAL METHOD

How a program earns its place.

Every listing is organised around traceable sources, canonical identities and clear evidence boundaries.

  1. 01
    Discover the canonical programme

    Duplicate calls, society listings and old PDFs are grouped into one decision profile before publication.

  2. 02
    Prioritise primary sources

    Current hospital, university, department, accreditor and professional-society pages outrank summaries and third-party directories.

  3. 03
    Extract decision fields separately

    Eligibility, deadline, duration, funding, clinical participation and application routes each need their own evidence.

  4. 04
    Cross-check supporting evidence

    Professional-society directories and current programme documents are used to confirm names, centres and recognition.

  5. 05
    Publish uncertainty

    Missing, partial and conflicting details remain visibly unresolved instead of being inferred or converted into a rating.

  6. 06
    Date every review

    Profiles show when sources were last checked and keep a correction route open for institutions and applicants.

FROM THE FOUNDER

Founded in Indonesia.
Designed for a global profession.

OrthoFellow was founded by Anissa Feby Canintika, an orthopaedic clinician who kept encountering the same problem: excellent opportunities existed, but the information was fragmented and difficult to compare—especially for international applicants.

“I built OrthoFellow because a fellowship decision deserves more than a collection of bookmarks. Surgeons should be able to see what is documented, what remains unknown and where to verify every important detail.”

Anissa Feby Canintika · Founder, OrthoFellow

EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE

A navigator, not a selection body.

OrthoFellow is an independent information platform. It does not accredit programmes, grant medical registration, issue visas, guarantee eligibility or influence selection decisions.

Programme details can change. Applicants should always confirm current dates, requirements, funding and clinical privileges directly with the official institution.
