The fellowship offers comprehensive training in all aspects of sports medicine including general musculoskeletal care, evaluation and management of acute and overuse injuries, diagnostic sports ultrasound, ultrasound guided procedures, interventional spine procedures, exercise physiology, sports nutrition, sports psychology, neuropsychology, MSK radiology, and athletic event coverage. In addition, our fellows get hands on experience in fracture management, regenerative medicine procedures (PRP, Tenex, shockwave therapy, prolotherapy, viscosupplementation), cardio metabolic testing, and concussion management.

Fellows participate in weekly musculoskeletal and sports clinics. In addition, training opportunities include covering high school football, collegiate athletics, professional and amateur sporting events such as USA fencing, USA Boxing, professional boxing, muay thai, the NYC Marathon, and other Road Runner events. Fellows will serve as team physicians to a Division III college and care for Red Bull sponsored athletes performing as members of the Red Bull North American Medical Team and P360 Center.

This is a strongly academic program. The fellow will have an integral role in education through interactions with residents and medical students and by contributing to and organizing aspects of the regular didactic program, sports medicine conferences and cadaver lab sessions.

The program has committed all of its positions to the National Residency Matching Program (NRPMP). Applications should be submitted through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Candidates must register for both ERAS and NRMP.

Currently the program offers four fellowship spots. Eligible candidates must be in good standing for graduation from an accredited PM&R, Emergency Medicine, or combined Emergency Medicine/Internal Medicine residency program. It is not necessary to have taken an elective in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and Human Performance or in Emergency Medicine to be favorably considered for a position in this program.

This one-year fellowship begins each year on July 1. There is an educational stipend. Fellows must have a New York State medical license and be board certified or board eligible in PM&R or Emergency Medicine before beginning the fellowship.
