Program Directors’ Welcome

The Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Texas Tech Health El Paso is committed to excellence in patient care, medical education, and research. Our residency program prepares future orthopaedic surgeons through comprehensive clinical training, a strong academic curriculum, and progressive responsibility that supports lifelong learning and professional growth.

Residents train alongside experienced faculty across the full spectrum of orthopaedic subspecialties at University Medical Center of El Paso. Research participation is encouraged, and residents are expected to take an active role in their education while developing the skills, accountability, and professionalism required for independent practice.

We invite you to explore our residency program and learn more about the educational opportunities, clinical experiences, and supportive learning environment that make Texas Tech Health El Paso an exceptional place to train.
