The residents of our program are diverse in every respect: educational background, previous work experience, age, gender, ethnicity, extracurricular interests, and talents. Musical interests and talents range from classical cello and piano to house music and DJ-ing. Our resident athletes include marathon runners, Ironman triathletes, Olympic rowers, soccer players, swimmers, volleyball players, and professional dancers. With our free time, some residents travel the world while others choose to stay close to home to enjoy the greatest city on earth. While of course, a strong educational background and work ethic are critical to succeed in orthopedic surgery residency training, equally important is the ability to share a diverse set of experiences and interests with one another.
