The PCSM fellowship has a longitudinal curriculum where the fellows alternate between orthopedic subspecialties, musculoskeletal radiology, and electives. Rotations include working with sports orthopedic surgeons and other orthopedic specialty clinics, including elbow, hand/wrist, and foot/ankle.
Fellows will be scheduled one half day per week at Watkins Health Services on the University of Kansas campus to provide primary and urgent care. Family Medicine faculty will be on site to review cases as needed.
Fellows will learn ultrasound through a longitudinal comprehensive curriculum in our program. There are ultrasounds available at all sports clinics. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is used in the clinic for diagnostic purposes and ultrasound-guided procedures and injections.
The Center for Concussion Management works in conjunction with the Sports Medicine Division as an interdisciplinary team to provide concussion care. Fellows will learn a multifaceted approach for concussion diagnosis and management, including the use of neurocognitive testing. The Sports Medicine Clinic sees a diverse athletic population and works closely with the school districts that are contracted with the health system.
