COMMON QUESTIONS

ASSH fellowships: FAQs

How many ASSH fellowships are listed on OrthoFellow?

OrthoFellow lists 87 orthopaedic programmes connected to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH), across 1 country. Each programme is counted once, even when it has several host centres.

Which ASSH fellowships are open now?

86 of the 87 ASSH-connected programmes currently show an active, upcoming or explicitly rolling application signal. Status labels on each card below come from the programme's official source; confirm the current cycle there before applying.

Which subspecialties do ASSH fellowships cover?

ASSH-connected programmes in the directory cover Hand and Microsurgery.

What does the ASSH listing mean for applicants?

Official directory listings: ASSH publishes a searchable directory of active hand-surgery fellowship programmes with a programme-specific accreditation-status field. Directory inclusion must not be presented as ASSH accreditation; applicants should confirm the listed status and the host's ACGME record. An organisation listing does not by itself establish your eligibility, medical licensing or visa sponsorship, so check each programme profile.

Where is the official ASSH fellowship directory?

The official American Society for Surgery of the Hand directory is at https://myaccount.assh.org/FellowshipDirectory. OrthoFellow links every programme back to its official source.
