  • Great review

    Orthopedic resident here. Look forward to this every month! Great summary of some of the articles but I really enjoy the interviews with the authors of the featured article. It’s interesting to hear the person/people behind these articles describe the process and their story

Geared toward ortho residents but could easily be appreciated by multiple audiences (e.g. APPs, med students). The anecdotal/conversational style makes it easy to keep up with while commuting or doing mindless chores (I find the orthobullets podcast to be too monotone, information-dense and choppy). The author interviews offer insight into the current research landscape & varying institutional ... more
