Hot off the press! One board certification wasn't enough, so I decided to take it a step further and apply for a subspecialty certificate in Sports Medicine. This is how our professional society officially recognizes my extra year of fellowship training at , along with a panel review of all my arthroscopic surgery cases (ACL, rotator cuff, labrum repairs, etc) and another grueling exam. Many surgeons skip this extra step, but continuing to test and validate my skills helps me deliver the best results to my patients in a field that is always innovating.

Central High School Homecoming - great win tonight under the lights! I have a blast working the sidelines all over town with our talented and capable athletic trainers. We have a great multi-specialty team with the same goal: keeping student athletes healthy! Injury prevention comes in at #1, but quickly and confidently diagnosing injuries on the sideline or with the additional imaging tools we have in our clinic is a close #2. https://www.osmcortho.com/provider/j-michael-smith-md?utm_source=gmb_auth

Now this is high tech! 3D models created from CT scans allow me to walk through the pre-operative planning for complex shoulder replacement cases. This patient had a chronic rotator cuff tear and will need a reverse shoulder replacement with a custom-machined implant to fill in a large defect. A great example of how technology is being used to add an extra degree of precision to these challenging surgeries!
