LEADING THE WAY
ABOUT THE FELLOWSHIP
The PR Foot and Ankle Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship presents a comprehensive one-year advanced surgical training program tailored for Doctors of Podiatric Medicine who have successfully completed an accredited residency. Under the guidance of respected attending physicians such as Dr. David Waters and Dr. Joshua Wray, our fellows engage in an immersive experience aimed at honing advanced foot and ankle surgical skills.
This elective year of additional training is specifically crafted for DPMs committed to advancing both patient care and surgical expertise to the highest standards. The fellowship places a primary emphasis on reconstructive surgery, providing training in areas such as Total Ankle Replacements, 3D Printed Custom Implants, Scopes, and more. In addition to surgical proficiency, fellows also undergo specialized training in clinical settings, covering aspects such as patient care, clinic scheduling optimization, and advanced billing and coding.
