About This Program
The JFK Johnson Residency Program has consistently received Five Stars-the highest rating for its PM&R Training Program from Doximity, the leading network for U.S. Physicians. An integral part of this training is the 1:1 Attending Resident ratio, with our amazing faculty, that occurs during our clinical curriculum, the volume of inpatients, outpatients, and procedures; such as Botulinum toxin, peripheral joint injections, electrodiagnostic testing and interventional pain management procedure.
