A well-coordinated, physician-led care team is essential for delivering safe and effective orthopaedic care. Orthopaedic surgeons lead teams of highly trained professionals who work together to ensure the best possible outcomes.
Patients who understand their care team feel more confident in their treatment and recovery. Use these resources to start the conversation—whether in your clinic, on your website, or through social media—to reinforce the importance of physician-led healthcare teams.


Orthopaedic surgeons play a key role in educating patients about their care team. Share our fact sheet, infographic, and video with your patients to help them understand how a physician-led approach ensures the highest standard of care.
