Description
Mayo Clinic’s Adult Reconstructive Orthopedic Surgery Lower Fellowship provides one year of subspecialty training in Jacksonville, Florida. It focuses on evaluating and managing primary and complex hip and knee problems, preparing surgeons for academic careers or scholarly subspecialist practice. Fellows work one-on-one with adult lower extremity reconstructive faculty through a mentorship model tailored to their interests and needs.
The program includes 12 months of clinical work across four to six consultants’ services, with rotations lasting six weeks to three months. Fellows perform preoperative consultations, participate actively in surgery, and manage postoperative care. Case conferences, journal clubs, technical cadaver laboratories, and opportunities to develop clinical research projects complement the clinical training.
