What is the difference between the 6-month Advanced Fellowship and the overall program name, PT Fellowship in Advanced Orthopedic Manual Therapy?
A. Many years ago we named our 6-month program a Fellowship in manual therapy. When the APTA set up the residency credentialing process a new designation Fellowship in Manual Therapy was established for subspecialty areas. We then changed our program name to coincide with the APTA terminology. We are officially the PT Fellowship in Advanced Orthopedic Manual Therapy. To become a graduate of an APTA Credentialed Fellowship, you must complete all parts of our program, e.g. independent study portions, the Mentorship and the Advanced Fellowship.
