Our mission is to address health care disparities, improve cultural competency and access to health care for the increasingly diversified U.S. population by increasing the pipeline of medical students from gender and ethnic minority groups seeking to become orthopaedic surgeons. This is an effort to address the current paucity of female and ethnic minority orthopaedic surgeons, comprising approximately 7% and 3% of all U. S. orthopaedic surgeons, respectively.
Nth Dimensions Education Solutions is an educational non-profit organization whose goal is to provide the resources, expertise and experience through developmental programming, scholarships and grants to the aforementioned students enrolled in accredited U.S. medical schools.
Success Stories
We are pleased to announce that for the 2007 residency match, the Orthopaedic Surgery Internship program had a 67% match; 6 out of the 9 students matched in orthopaedic surgery.
50% of the interns applying for residency positions in 2008 matched in orthopaedic surgery.
