Let's Play Two. #MLB #GoTigers #DoubleHeader #DetroitTigers #BaltimoreOrioles

Every time I do an Arthrosurface Hemicap, I encourage the residents to watch this movie. It's not the same as seeing it when you're seven but I hope they are still a little terrified. Maximillian attacks with the humeral reamer.

Happy Jackie Robinson Day. It's the day when #MLB celebrates the most significant event in the history of baseball.

I still get a physical newspaper on Sundays. My favorite part is giving them to players who look at you like "what is this thing you handed me?" I tell them their parents will want to keep it. Congrats, Jackson Jobe, on your first MLB win. Your mom will have this forever.

The guy who did this awesome shoe shine at the MSP airport just asked me out of the blue if I have ever heard of "Harrison Bergeron." It's one of my favorite short stories. The world is an incredible place. #Vonnegut

For the first time in nearly 15 years there are no Teslas in our driveway. Today we sold her Model X and last week we sold my Model S. A Macan EV and a Polestar 3 have upgraded our electric vehicle stable. So glad to have much better EV choices than when I had to compromise to drive electric.

Last day of Spring Training for me. Got a workout in before everyone arrived!

Another great incoming residency class at Henry Ford Health Dept of Orthopedics. We are so lucky to have all six of you!

Enjoying @tigers.bsky.social Spring Baseball with my favorite human.

I got to walk the grounds today. It was nice and sunny so I bummed a new cap!

This should be the next book you read. The parallels to pioneering women in ortho is chilling.

Two consecutive texts with my wife. Me bragging about my cool warm sports coat and her sharing the morning comics today!

And now it's a full squad. How fun to see the boys of summer back on the field. #DetroitTigers

So excited to be headed back down to Lakeland to do physicals on position players. Pitchers and catchers reported last week. Almost ready to let the games begin!

We go for it!

Come to my clinic. As a shoulder geek, physical exam is my favorite part!

Dr. MaCalus Hogan came to Henry Ford as our Grand Rounds Speaker and gave an amazing talk! It is always so fun connecting with great leaders who happen to be great friends.

My favorite resident moment is finding a thing in clinic (e.g. positive "O'Brien's test" for AC joint pain) and asking "Are you surprised that this was abnormal in this patient?" Followed by. "Have you read the "Active Compression Test" article from AJSM?

OR day and the resident is crushing it. So fun to teach.

A little something came for my office today.

Spent two hours yesterday in the lab with two PhDs thinking about the interplay between obesity and orthopaedic disease and how it can be modeled, studied, and then napkin drew a ten year research pathway. I love this part of research so much.

Trying to get up and running over here. If you like #shoulderology, #DetroitTigersBaseball or #Mentorship follow along!

Such a great Grand Rounds hearing from Dr. Ken Yamaguchi about his journey on both the provider and the payer sides.

Doing surgery in a new place is simultaneously anxiety provoking and amazing. What a great team and a good result!

I wanted to share this podcast of a legend and the time I got to interview him. Thanks, Dr. Evarts and the AOA! www.buzzsprout.com/927418/11802...

The Interurban Orthopaedic Society is small, intimate, and specialty agnostic. What I love about it is the ablility to talk with leaders across their career timelines. The biggest challenges in medicine right now are not clinical.

A great HFOrtho Grand Rounds yesterday by Dr. Patricia Kolowich on microaggressions. A thoughtful discussion ensued. I love a well-moderated and considerate discussion of these important topics!

NFL Sunday, Rugby World Cup, and baseball pennant chase. So much to watch today!

This but with journal articles. bsky.app/profile/jame...

Friday for the crew. Hope your weekend is a great one filled with mentorship and personal growth!

That turned out ok! #GoLions #NFL

Watching my first Lions game as a Detroiter. #313Proud

Great grand rounds today for the residents and faculty. It’s so fun sharing my journey and answering questions!

Leading an organization is humbling. I frequently find myself wondering if I’m doing the right thing, even though I know that I’m doing the right thing.

Glad to be here on BlueSky. You will see stuff about shoulder surgery, diversifying orthopaedics, and mentorship. Hit me up!
