Evaluations
- Please have all evaluations for observations and rotations sent to the provider/preceptor that accepted you. This ensures all documentation is filled out appropriately reviewing your time spent here at OrthoIndy.
Provider Documentation
- If your school requires forms to be filled out prior to your observation/rotation starting, a copy of the provider’s CV, etc., please contact HR@orthoindy.com.

Please do not call the Human Resources office seeking assistance in pairing you with a provider. Providers all have different schedules, locations, vacations, other students currently with them, etc., and the Human Resources office does not have access to that information.
