Comments:
This program is an urban/suburban community-based program offering experiences covering all levels of competitive sports activity for professional teams through college and into high school and club programs. It is supported by an array of very reputable physicians and a nationally known faculty. Unique to this experience is a year-long exposure with fellows from family practice, orthopedics and pediatrics, with an academic medical curriculum by the family medicine program at St. Margaret's Hospital. Research activity is a strong portion of the program as well.
