|
|
Course
Director:
Dr.
D. Dellacqua
Other Faculty:
Dr. Doster
Dr. Fox
Dr. Pannunzio
Dr. Weidenbener
|
Description:
One month
of practical orthopedics in both office and operating room. Some emphasis
on sports medicine and trauma, however, most aspects represented including
hand surgery.
There are
four orthopedic surgeons in this partnership, in addition to one primary
care sports medicine fellowship trained physician. This, I think,
makes the rotation even more open to student needs. If the student wants
all surgery, all office, etc. he/she will be able to satisfy that desired
experience. Also, it should be noted that during IU football season, this
office cares for that football team.
The recent
addition of a full-time hand surgeon really enlarges this section of our
practice.
In this
rotation, the student may choose general orthopedics, joint replacement,
hand surgery, or sports medicine, any and all. This course can be flexibly
designed to meet specific needs.
