Meet Trinity, 12, a competitive gymnast from Egg Harbor, NJ! ✨

Trinity came to our hospital where she was treated by her orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Apurva Shah, and his team for bilateral gymnast’s wrist. Though she missed an entire year of gymnastics – with two surgeries, months of casting, occupational therapy, and daily rehabilitation – she is now back on the mat, earning a Level 7 spot with the USA Gymnastics Development Program.

We can’t wait to see you soar to new heights, Trinity! 💙
