Progress on Arringdon
Greetings,
The Arringdon clinic continues to progress well, on Monday we will be six weeks out from opening our new clinic. The clinic continues to take on personality as construction continues to evolve; the x-ray suites are in the final push to have all the electrical work completed so the x-ray equipment can be installed. This week the generators for the x-ray units were delivered so electrical inspections could be completed. We will continue to provide weekly updates and photos.
Best,
Ray & Tiffany
Countdown to Arringdon!

REACH Equity Center 2021 Virtual Colloquium
From Erica Taylor, Chair, Orthopaedic Inclusion Workforce Committee “Yesterday at Grand Rounds, the presentation of a research project regarding the utilization of demographic data and signals of health disparities in arthroplasty sparked a lively discussion. I heard from some faculty members afterward as well who had follow-up comments and inquiries.
There is much interest in learning more about how we navigate areas of health disparities research and the implications of investigations as we continue to evolve our awareness and participation.
Please strongly consider attending this event below on May 10.”
