We are pleased to welcome five new residents to the UBC Department of Orthopaedics Residency Program in 2022: Gina Peck, Jenny He, Naif Abdulaziz Alanazi, Nathan Katz, and Yousif Murad!
Last fall, we selected one resident for our sponsored residency program slot, and on CaRMS Match Day this April 12, 2022, the remaining four residency program slots were filled. Each of our new trainees brings outstanding accomplishments and a deep commitment to their residency education.
Join us in welcoming our new trainees to our residency program in July 2022!
