Residencies & Fellowships at Spaulding Rehabilitation Network

About Residencies

The Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Residency Program is a three-year program commencing in PGY2. The training is robust and assures that residents meet the requirements of the ACGME as well as allowing enough flexibility to focus on fine tuning the training you will need to focus on your clinical and research area(s) of interest.

Our residents have the unique inpatient experience of caring for patients at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital (SRH), one of the largest freestanding rehabilitation hospitals in the United States. Spaulding offers a solid representation of the core rehabilitation patient populations, including traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, cerebrovascular accidents, amputee, pain management, pediatrics, and postoperative orthopedics. All units are designed to be homogenous by diagnosis, and are staffed by physicians with focused interests in these areas of disability.
