Breaking Down Barriers: Spanish-Language Sessions Offer Exceptional Content and Venues for Networking

AAOS is committed to providing educational opportunities for all orthopaedic surgeons. In recognition of the growing Hispanic population in the United States and the increasing number of Spanish-speaking patients, AAOS is offering a variety of Spanish-language sessions at the 2025 Annual Meeting in San Diego.

The Spanish-language sessions, held on Wednesday and Thursday, will cover a wide range of topics, including hip fractures, hip replacement, shoulder issues, and sports-related injuries. The sessions will be led by both international and U.S.-based speakers, ensuring a diverse perspective on these important topics.

AAOS encourages all orthopaedic surgeons to attend the Spanish-language sessions. These sessions are a valuable opportunity to learn from experts in the field and to network with other Spanish-speaking orthopaedic surgeons.
