RSA FELLOWSHIP APPLICATION

~ SEEKING BRILLIANCE, PASSION, AND DEDICATION ~

We Welcome Your Interest!

The RSA Fellowship Network Program is now taking applications for the July 2025 start date for future RSA Fellowship Candidates.

As you know, there are very few fellowships with a primary focus on refractive surgery, which is precisely why we have created the RSA Fellowship Network Program. The RSA Fellowship Program is a 2-year program. Year-1 is the “Fellow” year which follows the traditional fellowship format which emphasizes didactics, skills transfer, surgical logging, and more. Year-2 is the “Associate” year, is a year of independent work, which can be spent within the same practice or at a new location entirely, where the focus is on surgical skills, practice leadership training, and the additional broad range of skills required to build a refractive surgery practice.

If you are interested in a unique, Cornea & Refractive Surgery Fellowship/Associate Program, begin your application now!

The application is brief and takes about 15 minutes to complete. You may also contact us at Admin@RSAFellow.com or phone us at +1.480.664.1800 if you have questions.

Whether you have “Matched” to a fellowship program, or choose to only apply to the RSA Fellowship Network Program, we will do our best to accommodate your desire to participate.

The RSA Fellowship opportunity is outside the Match and is higher paying than most in-Match positions.

We congratulate you on your interest in pursuing the exciting and rapidly expanding, and diverse specialty of Refractive Surgery, and look forward to receiving your application.
