Welcome

2024 Annual Fall Meeting: Prove Me Wrong! Debates that shape our practices in 2024

On behalf of the AOAO Board of Directors and the entire Academy, I wish to welcome you to Boston this fall for the 2024 Annual Meeting.  Our theme for this meeting is “Prove me wrong! Debates that shape our practices in 2024”.  Given the rapid shift in evolving orthopedic techniques across all of our subspecialties, this series of debates in search of the truth could not be timelier.  Our moderators have worked tirelessly to ensure amazing faculty, topics, and education over the three days in Boston.

Boston in the fall is a magical time full of life, entertainment, and beauty.  I encourage you to bring your families and explore this majestic city which is full of history, fun, and memories.  

On a personal note, this fall I will be inducted as the next AOAO President.  Without the AOAO and the hard work our past leaders put in to support our profession, many of us would have never had the opportunity to be who we are today as orthopedic surgeons.  With unwavering AOAO passion and dedication, I eagerly anticipate serving each and every one of you to ensure the enduring legacy of our Academy and its vision. I could not think of a more personal place than Boston to receive this honor and am excited to share this moment with so many of you.

Please make every effort to attend our biggest and most innovative AOAO Annual Fall Meeting to date.

Sean Mc Millan, DO FAOAO
Honorary Program Chair
