My surgical mentor, Dr. Richard Hawkins, said we need to be life long learners…

This weekend I had a great opportunity to get into the lab to hone my arthroscopic shoulder skills.

Scott Sigman MD and Shariff K. Bishai, DO flanking me like the devil and the angel.
Did I make the right surgical decision?-So conflicting.

Special thanks to the a great panel that also included Joe Burns MD Deryk Jones Sean McMillan
providing their “experienced based medicine” over last two years with Conmed Biobrace.

Excited to provide this innovative technique to our patients with ACL tears.
Developed at Harvard, with years of research and clinical results, this new approach can restore and repair ACL tears rather than reconstruct.

Enjoyed hosting the Physics in Medicine class from Wofford with Dr. Mackay Salley. Never thought I would be lecturing on applied physics in Orthopedics. Covered ultrasound, total shoulder joint reaction forces, inlay glenoid design, and even stress/strain curves. Justin Fox from VCOM rounded out ultrasound demo with carpal tunnel, thyroid, and carotid doppler.

Happy National PA Week!
Shout out to the best orthopedic Physician Assistant you could imagine. Beth Hargett
has been with me for 5 years and has taken my practice to the next level. She is my co-pilot in the OR, always anticipating my next move, even before I do. She has built the first dedicated osteoporosis program in Spartanburg, “Own the Bone”, from the ground up. She was in the trenches and helped our office weather COVID and beyond by launching and perfecting our telemedicine appointments.
A true blessing to our office and patients.
