I could have never imagined learning and being exposed to so much in just one year’s time. Dr. Chudik and his team always were willing to take the extra time to teach and all did it with a great amount of patience. Prior to this residency, I never thought I would have such a great professional relationship with an orthopaedic surgeon. My ability to efficiently take a detailed history, perform a physical exam, diagnose, and develop a treatment plan in the physician’s clinic wouldn’t be possible without this experience. I also gained extremely valuable skills in the surgical setting that I otherwise might not have ever had the opportunity to learn. This residency also does an outstanding job of preparing an Athletic Trainer for the OTC exam. Overall, the residency was a great experience that will have a great impact on my professional career moving forward. Dr. Chudik’s practice values Athletic Trainers and their orthopaedic knowledge in a way that will positively impact us as healthcare providers.
