Orthopedic Residency

Welcome to the Orlando Health Orthopedic Residency website. As you will see, our program offers a well-balanced education in Orthopedic Surgery, with a strong emphasis on "hands on" operative experience. Our faculty consists of full-time academic surgeons and a mix of private practice physicians, all of whom have dedicated a significant portion of their time and effort to resident education. Unlike many university-based programs, our high-volume caseloads offer a rewarding operative experience, beginning early in training. Our rotations are consistent, with each resident completing the same rotations through sports, spine, joints, hand, trauma, tumor, pediatrics as well as the other areas of service. This consistency has allowed us to identify faculty members who truly want to teach and are willing to allow residents to participate heavily in surgical procedures.The Orlando Health Jewett Orthopaedic Specialty Hospital is the only one of its kind in the Southeast, thus allowing us to provide an unparalleled educational experience with efficiency not seen at most other teaching facilities.

Being located in Orlando is an added bonus – besides the great weather and proximity to the coast, the city offers entertainment and cultural amenities that few cities on the globe can match, and real estate is affordable and readily available.

I hope you find our website informative, and I look forward to answering your questions in person. I am sure you will find our residency competitive, uniquely strong in its operative experience and stable faculty, and located in one of the most magical cities on earth.
