Clerkship Information

Legacy Health's Podiatric Medicine and Surgery clerkship is open to applicants from each of the 9 accredited podiatric schools. Our clerkship combines the benefits of its hospital system with access to various Portland area hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers to provide a highly academic, intense surgical volume training program that allows its residents hands-on experience in all aspects of foot & ankle surgery. Clinic exposure, as well as extensive didactic training including monthly cadaver lab and journal club, are part of this dynamic experience.
