Welcome to the Podiatric Residency Website. Our goal is to equip you with all the necessary tools to have a successful practice and career.
Our PM&S-36 program provides the training and resources to facilitate the podiatry residents' achievement of the competencies outlined in the standards and requirements of the CPME.
As a resident, you will be exposed to all aspects of medicine and work side-by-side with osteopathic and allopathic residents. The training includes Emergency Room call/trauma, hospital admissions and inpatient care, as well as private office rotations, resident-based clinics with attending supervision, extensive didactic studies (including hands on cadaver labs) and exposure to other non-podiatric specialties.
The core of podiatry faculty are committed to teaching and to the success of the resident. The attendings are diverse in their training and approaches which adds a unique aspect to this program. Once completing your residency with our team, you will be well prepared and competent to begin your profession in podiatry.
I look forward to working with you.
