PROGRAM OVERVIEW
What this program offers
A one-year podiatric reconstructive and limb-salvage fellowship reporting 400–600 operating-room cases and more than 10,000 clinic encounters annually. The official page publishes the faculty, case mix and ABFAS requirement but not a stipend, email or deadline.
BENEFITS & SUPPORT
Published benefits and support
Attendance at the ACFAS scientific conference, weekly imaging and case review, monthly case-log review, quarterly performance review and structured practice-management exposure.
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.
