We have an unexpected opening for a one full year spinal surgery fellowship at Stanford University Medical Center, beginning August 2014. The fellow will obtain a comprehensive experience in adult spinal problems with emphasis on diagnostic techniques as well as surgical and non-surgical treatment. Experience is also available to treat pediatric deformity at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital. Research is required for completion.
Upon completion, the fellow will be experienced in the multidisciplinary and surgical treatment approach to spinal problems. Fellows will be trained in anterior approaches to the cervical, thoracic and lumbosacral spine, minimally-invasive techniques, motion-preserving technology, as well as traditional methods of fusion.
The fellow will be involved in teaching residents. Applicants from the United States must have completed an ACGME-accredited orthopaedic residency and be Board eligible. An unrestricted California medical license and DEA licensure is required.
Note: Applicants must have completed at least two years of clinical training in the US and be eligible for an unrestricted California medical license.
Interested applicants should send an email with an attached CV and reference letters to:
