Expand your reach to the orthopaedic foot and ankle community

AOFAS Mission StatementThe AOFAS promotes quality, ethical and cost-effective patient care through education, research and training of orthopaedic surgeons and other health care providers. The AOFAS creates public awareness for the prevention and treatment of foot and ankle disorders and provides leadership and serves as a resource for government, industry, and the national and international health care community.

AOFAS Vision StatementThe AOFAS, through its growing national and international membership, is the pre-eminent resource for standards in patient management, public safety, health care policy, education, and research in foot and ankle care.

Advanced Foot and Ankle CourseCourse Overview

This course is designed for orthopaedic surgeons, fellows and residents who treat acute and chronic foot and ankle conditions and have a solid understanding of the challenges in management of common and complex foot and ankle clinical problems related to trauma, sports injuries, and reconstructive procedures.

“The program will focus on advanced techniques, concepts, and on topics in foot and ankle surgery,” says Course Chair Thomas Lee, MD. “Presented in a case-based format, our goal is to make this course as interactive and audience driven as possible,” continues Co-Chair Hodges Davis, MD.

Few educational opportunities offer such a comprehensive approach to treating foot and ankle disorders and this meeting will be no different. This course is expected to draw 150-plus orthopaedic professionals; the course sold out when last held in 2012. The program schedule will provide dedicated time in the Exhibit Hall to help attendees make the most of their experience.
