JBJS has acquired Miller’s Orthopaedic Review Course Oxford, an established FRCS (Tr & Orth) exam preparation program with 17 years of experience preparing candidates for the examination.
The acquisition expands JBJS educational offerings and comes as the Oxford course introduces a new way for candidates to participate. For 2027, the program will offer its lecture course both in Oxford, UK, and virtually, making the educational content accessible to candidates worldwide. 2027 course and registration information can be found here.
“The acquisition of Miller’s Orthopaedic Review Course Oxford reflects the JBJS commitment to supporting orthopaedic professionals with high-quality educational resources throughout their careers. By adding a virtual option, we are pleased to make this established program accessible to an even broader community of FRCS candidates around the world,” said JBJS CEO Jason Miller.
