Names and fellowship roles come from the cited programme source. A green “individual profile verified” label means the position, qualifications and biography were also checked against an official personal or institutional profile. OrthoFellow displays a portrait only when it can be tied to an official profile or faculty source; otherwise the host institution brandmark is shown, with initials retained only when neither image is available. Faculty rosters may change.
PROGRAM HISTORY
Published fellowship history
The current OTA list names Anjan Shah as programme director. Tampa General's article naming Roy Sanders as director is dated 2023; the current USF page lists both as trauma faculty and Sanders as Program Chair, so the older fellowship-director label is historical rather than a current conflict.
