I’m still not convinced this isn’t a dream…but I MATCHED ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY at the University of North Dakota 💚🦴🛠️✨

After a decade of grinding, the dream I first had in 2016 is officially reality. Future orthopaedic surgeon loading..

I wouldn’t be here without my people ❤️

@ChrisNagelli Thanks, Chris!!! Hope you’re doing well 🤗

Great second Sport session at #MAOA spanning from shoulder, to hip, to knee and patellofemoral. Great to watch research fellows, residents, and colleagues #RockingIt from the podium.

I cringe every time I see a rider get on a bull without a helmet.

An isolated L1 fracture w/o nerve damage is definitely not the worst possible outcome here.

It’s all about survive and advance. Emphasis on survive.

A great study to aid in pre-operative counseling for patients with symptomatic iliopsoas tendonitis after THA. Amazing work team!

[Mario Hevesi MD PhD @MarioHevesiMD]

Check out our latest multicenter study on arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon lengthening after hip replacement!

Key takeaways:

✅ Majority of patients achieve pain relief and hip flexion strength improvement
✅ Cup overhang does not predict outcome
✅ Low acetabular revision rate

If you’re on the fence about taking a research year I can tell you it’s 100% worth it and Mayo Sports Med is the place to be. I’m becoming a capable and proficient researcher while my passion for ortho continues to grow.

My DMs are open for any questions about the program!
