Podiatric Foot & Ankle Surgery Fellowship

Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center in Worthington, OH is accepting applications for the Podiatric Foot & Ankle Surgery Fellowship 2021-22 program until September 1, 2020.

The Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Fellowship is a extensive, unparalleled one year fellowship in the setting of a high-volume private practice program led by Christopher F. Hyer, DPM, MS, FACFAS and Mark A. Prissel, DPM, FACFAS, in addition to the OFAC orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeons. Fellows will encounter a broad range of foot and ankle pathology, with a focus on sports, ankle replacement, arthroscopy, and complex hindfoot and forefoot reconstruction. Our fellowship places heavy emphasis on the development of the fellow's surgical skills. This is accomplished by providing fellows an appropriate level of autonomy in an intensive hands-on clinical and surgical environment. Individually, each fellow will have the opportunity to participate in approximately 700 surgical cases comprising over 2,000 procedures. This fellowship offers an in-depth experience within the business aspects of surgery including office management, product development, and operational efficiency. A unique one year experience designed to prepare the highly skilled foot and ankle surgeon for a changing healthcare environment. The OFAC fellowship bond is strong. All graduating fellows become lifelong members of the OFAC family and are included in educational endeavors, publication projects, product development opportunities, and regular reunion meetings. To all of us, the fellowship is not just one additional year of training, but rather an invitation to become a member of our uniquely diverse and highly specialized family of innovative and dedicated surgeons.
