Fellowship Details
Clinical Experience
Fellows are involved in clinic with the staff surgeons and have their own clinic half a day each week. The clinical experience involves exposure to clinical problems from the mundane to the complex.
Surgical Experience
The surgical experience includes the whole gamut of shoulder surgery from arthroscopic to open procedures. The surgical cases include shoulder instability, rotator cuff, arthritis and a myriad of other conditions. Primary and revision procedures are performed, including reverse prosthesis, tendon transfers and bone block procedures for instability. Fellows have the opportunity to evaluate patients preoperatively, contribute to their surgery and see them postoperatively.
It's a privilege to train at Johns Hopkins. This institution has the finest professionals in every aspect of health care - not just orthopaedics. It offers a diverse patient population and provides exposure to a wide range of pathologies. Aside from its renowned history, the people here have inspired me to take away as much as I can.

Other Responsibilities
- Fellows interact with students, non-operating residents from other programs and with orthopaedic residents.
- Fellows should be interested in teaching in the clinic and the operating room.
- Each fellow is required to perform one research project, which should be submitted prior to the end of the fellowship.
- Involvement in other projects and publications is encouraged.
- There is opportunity to be involved in covering athletic events if desired.
- Fellows are encouraged to participate in outreach speaking engagements and in learning practical skills for practice, such as billing and documentation skills.
- The fellowship also has a weekly didactic program on shoulder topics.
I chose this fellowship because of the breadth of pathology, the clinical and academic resources and the team-based approach to patient care.
