Dear Residency Site Directors,

Please take the time to fill out the orthotics & or the prosthetics
survey that was mailed to your facility, and return it in the self
addressed stamped envelope. The information from this research will
expectantly be published to assist NCOPE residency applicants focus their
search for facilities that provide the unique clinical, technical, and
educational opportunities your program provides.

Regrettably, I have a strict deadline and must ask that you make every
effort to complete the survey and return it to me by May 04, 2001. If you
have special circumstances and require a brief extension, feel free to
email me at: <Email Address Redacted> . If you have questions for my residency
director, please email Mark Taylor, CPO at: <Email Address Redacted> .

Please keep in mind, there are many resident applicants looking for an
NCOPE residency just like yours. Use this survey to tell them about your
program and geographical location.

Sincerely,

Robert H. Ward III, Sr. Resident Orthotist
