Stipend: 

$61,091 plus benefits

The UCSF fellowship in spinal surgery is designed to provide the fellow with significant exposure to all aspects of spinal surgery, including adult and pediatric deformity, degenerative disc disease, tumor and trauma. The combined patient volume of five staff surgeons provides ample clinical exposure to the operative and non-operative treatment of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar pathology. The fellow will be exposed to over 400 cases during the clinical year, including anterior and posterior surgical approaches, minimally invasive approaches, decompressions, reconstructions, and varied instrumentation techniques. The patient referral base encompasses a university-based hospital and a major level-one trauma center serving the population of northern California.
