Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 26 ratings
  • Inconsistent topics and focus

    Topics are infrequently about improving the care of patients. Recent focus on equity and inclusion is another manifestation of social justice warriors taking over the practice of medicine and orthopedics. The problem is worse in Canada. Let’s focus on helping everyone get better and improving the care of patients through thoughtfully executed surgery. JBJS podcasts should focus on science and data instead of controversial social issues.

Evolution of the Ruth Jackson Orthopaedic Society (RJOS), with special guests Dr. Linda Suleiman and Dr. Anna Rosenblum
Q: Can you run through the RJOS programs for listeners, especially for medical students and residents?
Both Linda and Anna outline a tiered program: medical student mentorship and committees with school-level events, funding to send students to major meetings, annual RJOS research days, and specific Kay Scholar pathways that support medical students, residents, and fellows with guidance, funding, and interview prep.
Asking the Right Questions After Adverse Outcomes, with special guest Dr. Rick Matsen
Q: What practical steps can individual surgeons take to learn from adverse outcomes in their own practice?
Adopt simple, scalable follow-up tools, engage in honest post-operative conversations with patients, and frame the discussion around what matters most to the patient, not just technical success metrics.
Asking the Right Questions After Adverse Outcomes, with special guest Dr. Rick Matsen
Q: Why do we keep seeing high revision rates in discussions about shoulder arthroplasty, and how can we shift the focus to meaningful patient outcomes?
By prioritizing patient-reported outcomes and tracking individual surgeon performance, clinicians can identify where they are not performing well and implement changes without waiting for broad, multi-center data.
