MSK/Sports Heavy Programs

Hello,
I have followed this site for quite some time and thought I would finally ask a question. Like many others, I am most interested in the msk/sports med side of PMandR. I wondered if we could get a discussion going about programs that offer stronger experience in this area. I have a particular interest in msk u/s and know that there have been a few programs mentioned in past posts, but was hoping this could be expanded on. What really got me concerned about the major discrepancies between programs is that at a recent conference I spoke with a recent PMandR residency graduate who told me that he had zero spinal injections and absolutely no msk u/s experience after finishing residency.
Thank you for your help.

MSK US, USGI, sports, pain, EMG, msk clinic, hand, spine center, all exceptional here

We also have our own continuity clinic as residents. Are other programs doing this?

From the interview trail, I remember that RIC does this as well as one other program that I remembered hearing about from classmates (Pitt I think? Jeff? Spauldling?)

I appreciate both of your inputs on this. Searching back through the archives, many of these same programs came up.
