The staff at Brown is amazing. The Chair, Dr Erhlich is very old school, but he is awesome and wants to make the best residents he can. He is very personable and approachable. He's very willing to help get funding for any resident research project.
The two trauma attendings, Dr Born and Dr Hayda are amazing surgeons and my week on trauma was great. Learned a lot about the finer points of surgery that get's stressed during the Super Chief year (trauma fellows). Dr DiGiovanni, Foot and Ankle, was one of the best part of my rotation, even got me thinking I like foot and ankle! The entire Hand staff, Dr Weiss, Dr Akleman, Dr DaSilva, and Dr Katarincic we're very willing to teach in the OR, and clinic.

As a med student rotator, it was great. 4 weeks, for services: Trauma, Adult Recon, Hand, and Peds. You get to see a lot of faces and get a good feel for many residents and attendings. Residents definitely include you with the team and help you learn and succeed, not destroy you.
Orthopedic Surgery Residency Program Rankings
As an overall impression: Brown really has a great thing going here. From top to bottom, it is hard to find flaws in this program.
Great group, great faculty, good teaching, training and facilities. I urge future applicants to strongly consider this program for their training. Chairman: Ehrlich is a legend. He is a dedicated chairman, and is still very actively involved in the department. He lectures twice a week at resident breakfast rounds, and is hilarious. He has serious orthopaedic and funding connections that he's not afriad to use them to help out the residents. DiGiovanni is the new program director.
He is a young, motivated leader who will be good for the residency program. There a well-known attendings in every specialty, most of them are good teachers/mentors.
Craig Eberson, MDWelcome to the Brown University Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Program! One of the oldest orthopedic residencies in the nation, Brown’s “fracture” residency began in 1938 and transformed into a five-year program based at Rhode Island Hospital, Hasbro Children’s Hospital, The Miriam Hospital and the Providence Veterans Affairs Hospital. There are typically six residents in each year of the program. The residency is followed by one year as a junior attending for which a is awarded. This unique year provides the Brown graduate with a tremendous breadth of independent experience. The Silver Family Fellowship award allows interested residents to experience the rewards of providing orthopedic care in underserved regions around the globe. The breadth of experience during the residency is vast.
Brown Orthopedic Residency
Hasbro Children’s Hospital is the only children’s hospital in the state, and Rhode Island Hospital is the only level 1 trauma center in Rhode Island. Both provide the vast majority of specialty orthopedic care the region. The Total Joint Center at The Miriam Hospital performs nearly 1000 joint arthroplasty surgeries, including hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and wrist replacement. Furthermore, the Orthopaedic surgeons at Rhode Island Hospital perform an average of 14,000 operations and receive nearly 200,000 office visits per year at University Orthopedics, the practice arm of the full-time orthopaedic faculty.
New anticoagulants have the potential to redefine how patients with atrial fibrillation and venous thrombosis are managed. New concepts of epidemiology of risk factors for thrombosis now help clinicians predict who is more likely to form clots after surgery, or after being placed on oral contraceptives. Newer antiplatelet agents are available and their use in patients receiving cardiac stents has mushroomed. There are new forms of recombinant clotting factors which have changed our approach to hypofibrinogenemia and von Willebrand’s disease. Case studies in hematology and coagulation pdf file.
The faculty supervised/resident run continuity clinics see approximately 75,000 patient visits over the course of a year. Subspecialty experience in Pediatrics, Tumor, Trauma, Sports Medicine, Hand Surgery, Shoulder and Elbow, Adult Reconstruction, Foot and Ankle and Spine is all obtained at one of our local facilities. Opportunities for both clinical and basic science research are available and each resident has four months of protected research time during the residency. The Orthopedic research laboratory at Brown University is one on the top-funded orthopedic labs in the country, with projects ranging from ligament reconstruction, cartilage biomechanics and biochemistry, molecular biology to mechanical testing of spine constructs and 3D kinematic modeling. Our research division is staffed by a cadre of full time scientists who assist residents in experimental design, technique, and data analysis.
Our goal at Brown is to produce the next generation of physician leaders for the Orthopedic community, both nationally at the highest academic levels, as well as locally in the many outstanding community practices throughout the country. I invite you to learn more about our program by browsing our site, or better yet, visiting us in person. I look forward to welcoming you to Providence!
