Why Utah?
My mentors from my research year recommended rotating at Utah, and it quickly became clear why. The program offers exceptional trauma training, top-tier subspecialties, and boundless research opportunities. What truly distinguished this program, however, was the people. The faculty are genuinely dedicated to mentoring residents and medical students. In addition, the program’s infrastructure, including a dedicated orthopaedic surgery center, a state-of-the-art SKI cadaver lab, and exceptional support staff, creates an ideal environment to develop into an excellent surgeon. Plus, SLC was a place where I could continue my hobbies and enjoy my time off amid a busy residency.
