Our fellows are exposed to a wide range of clinical, surgical and research opportunities, as well as exposure to sports team coverage and training room experiences. Our fellowship faculty maintain active clinical practices focused on the care of elite and recreational athletes. Our faculty includes team physicians for the Minnesota Twins (MLB), Minnesota Wild (NHL), Minnesota Whitecaps (NWHL), University of Minnesota Gopher Athletics and Gustavus Adolphus College. We are also closely involved in local and regional amateur and professional events. Research is also an important pillar of the program. Our faculty conduct research projects and scholarly work because we believe these are fundamental components in the training of the next generation of orthopedic surgeons.
Graduates represent the full spectrum of orthopedic practice, from full-time academics to private practice physicians. Several serve as team physicians for high school, collegiate and professional sports teams. Finally, many of our former fellows assume leadership roles in our professional societies and serve as directors of Residency and Fellowship programs.
