Special Features
Our residents work hard. They are rewarded with outstanding training in an environment that provides challenges of great breadth and depth. Our graduates are not just orthopedists, they are leaders. - This is not an old-school do-as-I say program. We choose applicants that we want to teach AND learn from. Each resident makes the program stronger. Because residents are uniquely valued at Emory, you will not find a more collegial place to train.
