 Dr. Johnson is a current chief resident at the Tulane University Orthopaedic surgery program. He will be starting his fellowship in sports at Vail in 2020.  This episode is a little different than the normal. We decided to make a two part series for tips for the resident on call. We cover tips and tricks for splinting, doing reductions while by yourself, as well as tips for giving grand round talks and preparing.

 

Congratulations again to Dr. Johnson for matching into a sports fellowship!
