Today Kim had the opportunity to observe her patient’s shoulder surgery at Mass General, and it was an incredible learning experience!
As physical therapists, we spend months helping patients recover after surgery, but getting to see the procedure firsthand provides a whole new perspective.
Watching each step, seeing the anatomy, and understanding exactly what was repaired and how helps bridge the gap between the operating room and the rehabilitation process.
Experiences like this allow us to better educate our patients, tailor their rehab, and appreciate the skill and teamwork involved in getting them back to doing what they love.
A huge thank you to Dr. Ryan Lohre and the rest surgical team for the opportunity to learn and continue growing as a clinician. Even got to watch a second bonus surgery he was doing! 🦴💪
