All subspecialty rotations include corresponding outpatient clinic and OR experience, as well as subspecialty conference. Dedicated scheduling is provided for scholarly development including lectures, assigned readings, small group discussion, competency assessment, and a research project. With the exception of trauma, no call is required, but the fellow will be strongly encouraged to participate in collegiate sports coverage during their sports medicine subspecialty rotation.
