Orthopedic Residency Recruitment

The University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences Orthopedic Surgery Residency Program was created based on a strong commitment and passion to educating the next generation of orthopedic surgeons. The five-year program is managed and funded by Sanford Health. The comprehensive program will help future orthopedic surgeons from across the country learn from the region’s most talented surgeons in both Fargo, ND and Sioux Falls, SD. Residents will have the opportunity to observe and participate in a variety of orthopedic treatments and procedures such as adult reconstruction, orthopedic trauma, spine, hand, foot and ankle, sports injury care, oncology and amputations. As Sanford has grown, it has built a wealth of knowledge in the field of orthopedics. This unique partnership provides the benefit of training in two metropolitan areas (Fargo, ND and Sioux Falls, SD). It also allows exposure to the rural communities in the upper Midwest who are serviced by Sanford Health. It is our goal to develop a residency program that is state-of-the-art, with the ability to analyze and implement new educational opportunities. www.sanfordhealth.org/orthoresidency
