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.Clerkship Program Contact

Residency Overview
St Mary's Medical Center's three year PMSR/RRA residency is a high intensity program with three entry level positions available for the highly motivated and dedicated student. The first year of training is a true intern year consisting of many off-service rotations to build a strong foundation for management of podiatric patients. The second and third years of training are spent using that knowledge base in a variety of clinical and surgical settings for a comprehensive education. Foot and ankle rotations include private practices, multi-specialty groups, resident-run clinic, surgery centers, community hospitals, large private hospitals, and a level 1 trauma center. Weekly academics, research, and hands-on workshops supplement resident training.
