Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowship Opportunities for Pediatrics-Trained Physicians in the United States

CONCLUSIONS: Pediatricians are eligible for more than two-thirds of PCSM fellowship programs across the United States, including programs that are not sponsored by Pediatrics departments. Applicants may not be aware of these opportunities given discrepancies regarding eligibility in over one-third of programs. In a field underrepresented by Pediatrics-trained physicians, accurate online information and transparency of eligibility criteria are critical to raise awareness about fellowship opportunities and foster equity with regards to career opportunities for pediatricians in PCSM.PMID:34674595 | DOI:10.1080/00913847.2021.1996864
