Fellowship Description:
The Shoulder and
Elbow Fellowship in the NYU-Hospital for Joint Diseases Department
of Orthopaedic Surgery is a comprehensive educational experience
for individuals who have completed their orthopaedic surgery
residency training. The goals of the fellowship are for each
fellow to 1) develop a wide knowledge base and to gain extensive
experience in the evaluation and management of shoulder and elbow
disorders; 2) to participate in teaching the principles of the
management of shoulder and elbow disorders to orthopaedic
residents and medical students and 3) to participate in shoulder
and elbow research with the goals of improving their research
skills and expanding the fund of knowledge concerning shoulder and
elbow disorders.
The fellowship
provides exposure to the full spectrum of shoulder and elbow
disorders. There is extensive experience in outpatient care
and a large volume of operative and arthroscopic procedures.
The shoulder fellowship is also integrated with our sports
medicine fellowship program to maximize exposure to sports related
shoulder and elbow disorders.
