Physical Therapy Residencies and Fellowships with Austin Sports Medicine
Austin Sports Medicine is proud to be a Network Clinic Partner for the Institute of Athlete Regeneration (IAR) and is a host site for all Austin-based continuing education courses.
IAR Orthopedic Physical Therapy Residency and Fellowship in Sports and Orthopedic Manual Therapy are accredited by the American Board of Physical Therapy Residency and Fellowship Education, a division of the American Physical Therapy Association.
The Residency program offers a combination of intense didactic and clinical mentoring experiences designed to advance the clinician’s skill in examination, clinical reasoning, and treatment of the orthopedic and sports population with a strong emphasis on manual therapy applications.
The Fellowship curriculum is based on the Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy Description of Advanced Specialty Practice and is elevated to the application of the athletic and active populations. Upon graduation, clinicians will be prestigiously recognized and credentialed as Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists (FAAOMPT).

Benefits of Working With A Student
All our current providers were once students, and we are committed to teaching students about compassionate healthcare. All students are thoroughly trained and vetted as part of our interview and onboarding process. We understand that having students involved in your care may raise questions or concerns. Your comfort and privacy are our top priorities, and we will always respect your preferences regarding student involvement in your treatment.
Student Clinical Rotations
Our clinical rotations are designed to provide students with a comprehensive learning experience that will dramatically improve their clinical skills. During your rotation, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic integrated model of orthopedic and sports medicine. Under our experienced staff’s supervision, you will help care for a variety of adult and youth clients including high school, collegiate and professional athletes.
At Austin Sports Medicine, students can participate in Grand Rounds, staff in-services, independent learning, and one-on-one learning throughout their internship.
How to Apply
We accept students throughout the year and have many pre-established relationships with schools. If you are interested in a rotation at one of our locations, please first reach out to your school to see if we have an existing relationship. If we do not, you can provide your DCE with your contact information to reach out.
Our rotation spots are limited, and we have many students applying. All students must apply and undergo an interview before being selected.
