The two day course includes a variety of lectures, case presentations, surgical demonstrations and hands-on workshops designed to enhance your knowledge of orthopaedic sports medicine. An interactive, case-based approach will teach the work-up, management and the rehab techniques utilized by the international experts who comprise the faculty.
