The Outstanding Resident of the Year (OROTY) Award was created to recognize and honor exceptional physicians in training who exemplify a profound spirit of altruism and whose unique blend of clinical promise, leadership, dedication, and commitment to Osteopathic patient-centered care distinguishes them from their peers.

This year, the American Osteopathic Foundation (AOF) partnered with seven Osteopathic Specialty Associations to highlight outstanding physician residents in training programs across the county. These residents consistently provide exemplary patient care and serve as Osteopathic ambassadors, raising awareness of the quality care Osteopathic physicians provide.
