Building a Brighter Future Through Orthopedic Care and Education in South Texas

South Texas faces a critical shortage of orthopedic surgeons, leaving aging and underserved populations without timely access to joint, bone, spine, and other orthopedic care.


To meet this need, TEAM is exploring the creation of an Orthopedic Residency Program as the next major milestone in our multi-specialty mission to train the next generation of Orthopedic Surgeons and serve underserved populations.
