As you can probably tell from the Educator tab above, I really like to teach. I have been involved in teaching surgical techniques to other doctors at local, regional, national, and international courses for two decades. Covid put a hold on meetings for most of the past year, but fortunately these meetings are starting to come back.
I am most proud of my association with the Cervical Spine Research Society (CSRS), the only professional spine society solely dedicated to the advancement of diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the cervical spine. I have been involved with the CSRS since 2003, and am excited to co-lead the annual instructional course next month in Atlanta.
