Is there time for fun outside of the residency program?
Orthopaedic residencies are not vacations, and our program is no exception. A certain level of commitment is expected, and personal sacrifices do have to be made. Having said that, the majority of our residents currently are married, many with young families. Each resident has outside interests, and they often overlap each other. You will not forget that you have a home. We have an annual golf outing at a local country club and a Winter Solstice party. We also have an annual Tigers Game Day where we watch the game from a VIP box for all residents, attendings and families. We attend Red Wings games with applicants. Also, sports’ attendings give GREAT tickets to Pistons and Tigers games!
