Fellowship Training
Colorado Orthopedic
Research Institute
A fellowship is a year or more of specialized training completed after orthopedic residency. At the Colorado Orthopedic Research Institute, Dr. Fox dedicated an entire additional year to mastering adult reconstruction — not just learning joint replacement as part of a broader surgical education, but immersing in it completely.
That depth of training is especially important for revision surgery, where complications from a previous joint replacement require advanced problem-solving and technical skill. When your case is complex, fellowship training matters.
