Orthopedic Sports Medicine Fellowship
The University of Kansas School of Medicine offers two ACGME-accredited orthopedic sports medicine fellowship positions.
Our fellowship program combines a comprehensive educational experience, including a large variety of clinical, operative and research experience, with extensive onsite care of athletes at all levels, from high school to the professional level.
Our faculty collaborate to cover 13 area high schools, the Kansas City Royals, the Kansas City Chiefs and the University of Kansas athletics. This provides a broad variety of training room and sideline coverage opportunities.
As a fellow, you will gain a wealth of complex shoulder and knee experience. You also will receive training in hip arthroscopy and adolescent and adult hip preservation, sports-related foot and ankle care and sports-related elbow care.
You will rotate with ten fellowship-trained sports medicine surgeons and also spend time with ten other staff, including orthopedic surgeons and primary care sports medicine practitioners. The rotation schedule includes regular fellow's didactics, a multi-disciplinary sports medicine journal club, resident and community teaching opportunities and ample time to pursue research endeavors.
Facilities
Fellows spend most of their time at our primary clinical partner, The University of Kansas Health System's Indian Creek Campus in Overland Park, Kansas. They also will spend time in the training rooms and clinics at the Arrowhead and University of Kansas facilities as well.
