      Athletic Trainer - Clinical Resident

      Completed one of the nation's premier preparatory athletic training residency programs. The UW Health Athletic Training Residency Program has molded me into a versatile healthcare provider by allowing me to gain experience in a clinical setting, working as an athletic trainer in the physician practice. Completing the UW Health Athletic Training Residency program has helped me add to my repertoire of clinical skills by refining my musculoskeletal assessment and diagnostic skills, training me in utilizing electronic medical records, exposing me to musculoskeletal radiology and building my knowledge of reading radiology films, and finally continuing to practice in an interdisciplinary setting. I am pleased and privileged to have completed my residency with UW Health and learned under all of their medical providers!http://www.uwhealth.org/files/uwhealth/docs/pdf/UW_Health_Organizational_Chart.pdf Show less
