🌟 Celebrating Black History Month! 🌟

Meet Dr. Myles Atkins, a PGY3 Orthopaedic Surgery Resident at Rush University Medical Center. Originally from Marietta, GA, Dr. Atkins discovered his passion for orthopaedic surgery at Morehouse School of Medicine, where his mentors introduced him to the field. “Through working with them, I was able to sense, through surgery, the ability to make tangible changes in patients’ lives that can improve their life almost instantly.” This shared goal of helping patients regain movement and return to the activities they love continues to drive him every day.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Atkins enjoys traveling, discovering new Chicago restaurants, biking along the lakefront, cheering on the Philadelphia Eagles, and attending live concerts.

As a Black male in orthopaedic surgery, Dr. Atkins recognizes the challenges of being underrepresented in the field but finds strength in mentorship and advocacy. “I try to identify with allies in the field who are also working towards diversity. I look to find diverse leaders in other fields of medicine and discuss with them how I, too, can contribute to my field.”

To future orthopaedic surgeons, he offers this advice: “Stay true to your goals with unwavering dedication and passion. Find mentors who not only care about your career development but also your personal development.”

For Dr. Atkins, diversity in orthopaedics is essential to advancing the field and improving patient care. “Patients generally feel more comfortable when they are treated by someone with similar life or cultural experiences. By diversifying the field, we inherently are likely to gain the trust of patients who otherwise may feel unnoticed or unheard. Secondly, it allows young patients in grade school and college to envision themselves as future surgeons, further contributing to increasing diversity in the field.”

We are proud to celebrate Dr. Atkins and his dedication to diversity, mentorship, and excellence in orthopaedic surgery. 🎉

Here’s the thing about #BlackHistory: U can hide it, ban it, rewrite it, but it won’t stay buried 4 long. The young will seek it out.

With your bitter, twisted lies
You can trod me in the very dirt,
But still, like dust,
I’ll rise” —M. Angelou

@DrAPMD 😭 not calling the police. As women of color, we face so many adversities every day while trying to pursue our dreams. I am sending you a spirit of peace and calmness. They may have played a dirty move today but they can’t stop what is already in motion. You will overcome this ♥️
