Podiatric Surgery at Kaiser Vallejo

Kaiser Consortium at Vallejo, Santa Rosa, and San Rafael

The program at Kaiser Hospital Vallejo is a consortium model where our residents train not only at Kaiser Vallejo but also at the Kaiser Permanente medical centers in San Rafael and Santa Rosa. We take three residents per year for a three surgical program and have been approved as a PM&S-36 by the Council on Podiatric Medical Education. First year rotations are completed at Kaiser Vallejo except for two months of outside rotations at San Francisco General Hospital Trauma Surgery Service and Highland Hospital Emergency Room. The second and third years will consist of rotating four month podiatric surgery blocks at each of the three medical centers. We provide high level training in every area of podiatric medicine and surgery with exceptionally strong experience in perioperative management and a dedication to the principles of evidence based medicine. Podiatrists in Northern California Kaiser are fully integrated into the medical center setting and residency training benefits from this high level of parity. We continue to have an externship program but it is not required for application to the residency. We do however require applicants to be new graduates with a minimum 3.25 GPA.
