Novant Health New Hanover Residency Site

The UNC Department of Health Sciences in the School of Medicine and UNCH Rehabilitation Services Residencies are pleased to partner with Novant Health New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington, North Carolina. This physical therapist (PT) residency site is part of the UNC and Novant Health affiliation and has been made possible through funding for residency expansion. The UNC PT Residency Program has expanded to include sites in New Hanover County in the state’s southeastern region.
The first resident in orthopedics at the Novant New Hanover site started in September 2024.  A neurologic resident will begin there in September 2025. The outstanding physical therapists in Wilmington follow the well-established UNC residency program structure and mentor the residents on-site.

The orthopedic and neurologic residency applicants in 2024 are considered for this unique opportunity to serve the health and well-being of people in southeastern North Carolina and surrounding communities.
