Physicians Committed to Educating Peers and Patients

Physicians at Southern California Orthopedic Institute (SCOI) are leading the way in surgical innovations. From broadcasting live surgeries to teaching colleagues about new procedures and techniques, SCOI surgeons are known for their expertise in orthopedics.

Dr. Mark H. Getelman, orthopedic surgeon and medical director of the Southern California Orthopedic Research and Education Center (SCORE), performed and moderated a live shoulder surgery in May which highlighted techniques for arthroscopic instability repair. “Live, interactive surgeries are a great way to inform physicians and patients about new procedures and give them some insight on how they are performed,” said Getelman.

Several SCOI physicians were also recently involved in facilitating a course on hip and shoulder arthroscopy in Napa Valley. Surgeons from across the country attended the course in order to learn about new procedures, study results, improve techniques, and participate in panel discussions.

“At SCOI, our physicians are committed to innovative education and development,” said Getelman, “because in the end, we know that it helps us provide a better quality of care to our patients.”
