"From my first day in fellowship I was surrounded by a diverse and supportive staff of physicians who were focused on all areas of my training. In particular, the MSK ultrasound curriculum has given my confidence to not only perform and teach procedures, but help diagnose MSK conditions in the clinic. Because of my extensive MSK U/S training in fellowship, I have become a valuable asset to my Orthopedic colleagues who now routinely send me patients for diagnostic scans instead of ordering more expensive and time consuming studies such as MRIs." |

"The UMass Chan Medical School fellowship is an immersive experience into the world of sports medicine from day one. Having done my residency at UMass Chan, I had already seen the transformation in past fellows, becoming skilled sports medicine clinicians and teachers, but could not anticipate the scale of the experience.
The experience with the variety of sports coverage, procedures, and extensive use of diagnostic/therapeutic ultrasound have been integral to my clinical practice. Most importantly, the faculty, staff, and athletic trainers are kind, always willing to teach, and wonderful role models."

"I cannot say enough about my time as a sports medicine fellow at UMass Chan Medical School. I completed the fellowship and left with a strong foundation in all aspects of sports medicine including the use of sonography for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
I also had plenty of experience working with athletes from the high school level to the professional level which gave me the confidence to jump into a team physician role shortly after completing fellowship. In addition to the strong training, the faculty at UMass Chan were excellent mentors and I still keep in touch with them on a regular basis."

"I feel so lucky to have matched to the UMass Chan Sports Fellowship. Each fellow is pushed to grow by the variety of teaching styles, demands of didactics with the students and residents, and coverage opportunities at all competitive levels and venues of sports. The camaraderie of the program and the connections to local teams sets this fellowship apart.
The year is fun, fast, and full of unforgettable experiences that shape you into a well-rounded, capable sports medicine attending. Upon completion of the program, I felt well equipped to create a contract with a local internal medicine group and start my own diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound clinic. I miss working at UMass Chan and loved my time there."
