We are proud to announce that Memorial Hermann Sports Medicine and Orthopedic Residency Programs have recently achieved re-accreditation for a term of 10 years from the American Board of Physical Therapy Residency and Fellowship Education (ABPTRFE). Because of the rarity of 10-year terms for re-accreditation, our long-term accreditation period signifies a huge accomplishment and indicates the validation of our residency programs. Over the past 7 years, our residency programs have grown exponentially in capacity, stature and reputation due to the passion and dedication of our residency and research leadership team, faculty and residents.
The program boasts many accomplishments that are helping to advance sports medicine and orthopedic care in our region and beyond:
