Osteopathic Orthopedic
Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center offers an AOA approved 5-year residency in Orthopedic Surgery, and provides broad exposure to orthopedic surgery cases. Residents receive training at a tertiary center, as well as at several community hospitals.
The aim of this program is to provide the physician with the basic information, skill and motivation necessary to become a general Osteopathic orthopedic surgeon. The program will meet the training requirements when applying for future certification in orthopedic surgery by the American Osteopathic Association upon the recommendation of the American Osteopathic Board of Orthopedic Surgery. From this experience, the resident will be provided with the knowledge and skills requisite for general orthopedic practice.
