Campbell Foundation: Celebrating 75 Years

Orthopaedic excellence takes many forms. As the Campbell Foundation has grown and evolved, so has our ability to produce superior research, educate future surgeons and ensure excellent patient care.

This charitable powerhouse focuses on:

Education

Education and training are at the heart of the Campbell Foundation mission. The Foundation sustains one of the most sought-after residency programs in the United States, educating forty surgeons in a fi ve-year residency and training them in “the Campbell way.” Each year, six sub-specialty Fellows actively engage in patient care, research and outreach.

Perhaps best known for producing Campbell’s Operative Orthopaedics, the “bible” of orthopaedic medicine since 1939, the Foundation supports a robust publication program, with more than 150 publications, presentations and posters produced and distributed to practitioners worldwide in the last year alone.

In addition, training events, including the Alvin J. Ingram Memorial Virtual Lecture and James Beaty Visiting Professorship, o er indepth continuing medical education experiences for residents, sta and partners across the globe.

Research

Campbell Foundation sta administer and facilitate more than 140 clinical studies each year, demonstrating Campbell’s unwavering commitment to innovation and patient well-being. Each subspecialty has teams that engage in multi-center clinical studies, sponsored clinical research and physician-initiated studies to examine everything from treatments to pain management systems.

Research activities also engage Campbell residents and fellows, medical students and industry and academic partners, further fostering collaboration and driving future innovation.

Results are shared with the world through presentations and posters at academic conferences, publications and industry outreach.

Community Impact

The Campbell Foundation ensures orthopaedic care is available to everyone. Partnerships with healthcare partners, including Regional One Medical Center and Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital, ensures children, veterans and the underserved can access excellent orthopaedic care. Each year, community clinics support uninsured and under-insured individuals who depend on charitable clinics for care.

The desire to serve extends to annual medical mission trips, where Campbell surgeons and residents provide care and training to high need communities in developing countries.

Compassion drove the creation of the Center of Excellence for Cerebral Palsy Care & Research at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital in 2018, where hundreds of CP patients now have a “one-stop shop” for multidisciplinary, comprehensive care and treatment.

The year 2021 marks the 75th Anniversary of the Campbell Foundation. Thanks to countless partners and friends, the excellence, innovation and education defi ning our last 75 years will set the course for the next 75. This year, we celebrate you, our partners and investors, and all things Campbell.
