Published benefits and support

A framed certificate is presented at the ISAKOS Congress. Fellows document their travel in a written report and are expected to share the knowledge within their home region.

Benefits may depend on appointment type, training level, visa status and the active academic year. OrthoFellow keeps stipend and benefits separate so a salary figure is not mistaken for the full package.
