I would recommend the Orthopaedic Extremities and Orthopaedic Reconstruction & Trauma Program to anyone who is looking to get into this industry. There's a certain level of finesse, there's a certain level of professional knowledge necessary. You have to look at an x-ray and help the doctor figure out treatment. You have to help a surgeon, as you're standing in the OR, figure out how to use your product while they're using it on a patient.
