Carolinas Medical Center Program
About This Program
Fellows will receive a certificate from the OTA at the completion of fellowship. We have 5 full-time, fellowship-trained orthopaedic traumatologists. We have an excellent clinical volume as the 6th busiest trauma center in US. We follow a clinical mentorship model-fellows work 1:1 with each of the 5 trauma faculty. The fellowship has received continued approval from the ACGME since 1992. We have a dedicated fellow curriculum including practice management and cadaveric labs.
