A Partnership Update from David B. Jones, Jr., MD

What It Means to Be a Team

Being a team requires humility and understanding that we cannot solve challenges or do the work alone. Strong teams discover and value the strengths of each team member and leverage those in various roles to accomplish a common goal. That’s what we do at Orthopedic Institute.

So, who exactly is part of our team? Our team extends beyond just Orthopedic Institute employees. Referring providers, chiropractors, employers providing insurance for our patients, work comp case workers, the schools and teams we partner with, and external therapists all have a vested interest in patients overcoming their pain or injuries.

We believe that as we strengthen connections and communication across our team, the patients we serve get better care. Our hope for newsletters, such as this one, is to provide practical tips and helpful information that will be useful as we all strive together to help our patients get relief and get back to the activities they enjoy.

If you have comments or questions you would like us to address, for example: “What is an easy way to tell the difference between hand arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome?” or “How do I know if my patient might benefit from a hip scope?” please let us know.

Thank you for partnering with us to serve our patients.
