Where this comes from

Abstract

Orthopaedic graduate medical education includes evaluation and treatment of problems of the foot and ankle. The challenges of managed care, podiatry, and institutional resources have reshaped the way we educate orthopaedic residents as managers of disorders of the foot and ankle. The most useful tools acquired in residency will be those that establish a strong medical and surgical foundation in problems of the foot and ankle and foster lifelong adaptation of new knowledge and techniques.
