It's time to unveil one of my labors of ❤️! Astrid is my world. I want her to live forever, even in the hearts of those who never met her. Perhaps this book will inspire you to adopt a rescue pet. Perhaps you just like bones. Or dogs. Or both!

An excellent article for any surgeon or aspiring surgeon.
Surgery is a "wicked" environment: feedback is delayed, noisy, and often biased. My essay on why experience doesn't always equal mastery, and how to learn when the feedback loops are broken.

I don’t make any $ from this, but if I had a million I’d buy every female ortho resident& attending this. We have high breast cancer rates, mostly due to incomplete outer quadrant/axilla coverage. Get measured; may need bigger size to go over existing lead burmed.com/store/wearables/b…

Our reception at #OTA2025 was a blast with a great turnout and excellent food. This guy (appropriately named Little Bit) didn’t have a badge, but got in anyway. :) 🫏

Two RCTs from today’s sessions I enjoyed: tobramycin powder doesn’t improve infection rates when added to vanco and can make things worse (MTRC Tobra study); & immediate weightbearing of ankle fx at 2 wks is ok (syndesmosis excluded) (Dr Obremskey). Publications incoming #OTA2025

A busy morning here at #OTA2025. President Doug Lundy delivering opening remarks, a speaker ready room with a view, the opening of the Exhibit Hall (more to come on that!), and one of our committees hard at work on improving the future of our profession.

Dinner event selections are crucial for any OTA meeting attendee, and Phoenix does not disappoint. Enjoying bone marrow 🦴and a cocktail called “I love you, but I love me more” (a nod to Samantha, for my SATC ladies) at the Wren & Wolf. #OTA2025 🍹@otatrauma
