UCSF Health St. Mary's Hospital

Introduction

UCSF Health St. Mary's Hospital offers a three-year residency in podiatric medicine and surgery, with an emphasis in reconstructive rearfoot and ankle surgery. The program is designed to produce podiatric doctors who are confident and skilled in performing forefoot, hindfoot and ankle reconstructive surgery; trauma surgery; and diabetic wound care. Throughout their training, residents are required to teach medical students as well as medical and surgical interns. They are also encouraged to attend a wide range of academic meetings to ensure their knowledge of the field is expanding alongside their skills. In their second and third years, residents work in podiatric clinics and multidisciplinary clinics that provide training in trauma, elective surgery, biomechanics, wound care, limb salvage and amputation.
