Joseph H. Boyes Hand Fellowship

Description

The Boyes Hand Surgery Fellowship offers a truly comprehensive training experience in all aspects of hand surgery. The fellowship is based at Los Angeles General Medical Center and Keck Hospital of USC. A close relationship with Children’s Hospital Los Angeles increases exposure to congenital problems.

Fellows gain extensive experience in trauma, microvascular, congenital, rheumatoid problems, and burns. A microsurgical laboratory allows fellows to practice supervised microsurgical techniques.

Weekly conferences include a lecture presentation, review of journals and case presentations. Visiting guest speaker lectures are also scheduled throughout the year.

Each fellow is required to complete at least one scientific paper suitable for publication in a major journal and presentation at a national meeting.

The fellowship is open to board-eligible orthopaedic, plastic or general surgeons. A valid California medical license is required.
