Our program has clear expectations that senior-level residents have a clinical and surgical mastery of orthopedic pathology and treatment.
The program is led by orthopedic surgeons who provide a broad perspective of each subspecialty. Residents, who join our team, understand this is a rigorous program that thrives for excellence in patient care and didactics.
Given our high volume of cases, junior and senior-level residents are expected to be involved in the clinical and operative decision-making process.
Our didactic curriculum enhances the clinical learning environment with resident participation in weekly faculty-provided education conferences, resident didactic presentations, monthly skill labs and subspecialty journal clubs.
Residents who graduate from our program are of the highest quality and continue to be selected for competitive Fellowships.
With the support and resources of HCA Healthcare/USF Morsani College of Medicine GME, our residents acquire the skills necessary for a successful career and to develop as leaders in the field of Orthopedic Surgery.
We look forward to receiving your application and appreciate your interest in the Orthopedic Surgery Residency Program at HCA Florida Largo Hospital.
Sincerely,
John Harker, DO
Program Director
