MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR Welcome to the first edition of the University of Kentucky College of Medicine Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine update. A lot has changed over the last five years, and we are glad to be able to communicate with our past and current residents, faculty, and all of those associated with our program about our progress and current status. UK Orthopaedics has developed a wide range of subspecialties that rank very highly in the region.

The University of Kentucky has always been a destination center for orthopaedic trauma and complex orthopaedic problems. Still, in addition to this, we have also become the go-to source for all orthopaedic problems. What you will notice in the following pages is that we have faculty of diverse backgrounds and a full breadth of orthopaedic services.

You will also see how our research has increased dramatically as we continue to solve problems for the Commonwealth and orthopaedics as a whole. We hope you will be proud of our orthopaedics department that you have been part of building, whether as a resident, faculty, patient, or prospective patient. We look forward to sharing our plans for expansion in the future.

Jeff Selby, MD Professor and Chairman Department of Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine

OVERVIEW The UK College of Medicine Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine includes world-renowned, board-certified orthopaedic surgeons, primary care sports medicine physicians, podiatrists, and other orthopaedic specialists who are consistently named to the Best Doctors in America list.

Because our providers participate in clinical trials and research studies, patients can experience groundbreaking care options from leaders in the field of orthopaedics.

We are proud to be the official team physicians for many of the schools and universities across the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine involves the art and science of healing bones and joints and restoring human beings to a functional life.

The orthopaedist requires technical operative proficiency, a mastery of an ever-expanding body of knowledge, and clinical skills which all combine to creatively solve complex musculoskeletal issues.

We have 40 board-certified orthopaedic surgeons specializing in other orthopaedic subspecialties including, hip and knee replacement, foot and ankle, hand surgery, pediatric orthopaedics, sports medicine, spine, and musculoskeletal cancer. Our team of experts also includes three board-certified sports medicine primary care physicians.

Caring for patients in Kentucky is the reason we are here, and our faculty take pride in treating the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons.

MISSION Our group of highly trained subspecialists provides comprehensive orthopaedic coverage for the state of Kentucky and the surrounding region. We offer complete musculoskeletal care to all age groups, educate future surgeons, research new techniques, and provide community outreach.

We are committed to these goals for Kentucky and the surrounding region: • Uphold a patient-driven orthopaedic center of excellence.

• Provide state-of-the-art orthopaedic patient care.

• Provide timely, quality, cost-effective, comprehensive care.

• Be accessible to community physicians and patients.

• Provide the best possible environment to train future orthopaedists.

• Enhance medical knowledge through research.

• Support and enhance the mission of UK HealthCare, the UK College of Medicine, and the University of Kentucky.

In association with Shriners Children’s Lexington, Kentucky Children’s Hospital (KCH) is ranked 42nd in the country for pediatric orthopaedic care.

While they are separate entities, Shriners and KCH work closely together to provide seamless pediatric orthopaedic care.

ATHLETIC TRAINING PROGRAM We employ the region’s largest certified athletic training staff.

Three of our athletic trainers have won Athletic Trainer of the Year in the State or District, and one of our athletic trainers is in the Kentucky Athletic Trainers Hall of Fame.

Our certified athletic trainers are specially trained in the prevention, assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of all types of sports-related or physically active injuries and illnesses. Prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation programs are developed based on medical, exercise, and sports sciences.

They provide athletic training services at schools, clubs, tournaments, special sporting events, and all Kentucky High School Athletics Association (KHSAA) state events. Our athletic trainers are also involved in educational events, including lectures, community seminars, or health fairs.

Our certified athletic trainers are directly involved with patient care, providing patients with education on injuries, treatment and rehabilitation protocols, pre- and post-operative care, return-to-play guidelines, and the fitting of braces. Our mission is to educate each student-athlete on their injury and give them a specific, comprehensive treatment plan so they can attain their return-to-activity goals.

Examining the Importance of Athletic Trainers

After the physician and certified athletic trainer have explained the treatment plan to athletes and parents seen in the clinic, the certified athletic trainer will call that player’s coach and/ or certified athletic trainer to inform them of any restrictions or return-to-play guidelines. Communication is vital for an athlete to return to sports in a safe and efficient manner. The certified athletic trainers use this same philosophy at their contracted high schools when evaluating and treating athletic injuries.

There is constant communication between the physician, certified athletic trainer, parents, and coaches regarding all injuries.

29

EMPOWERING KENTUCKY’S ATHLETES UK Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine is proud to provide team physicians and athletic training services for these colleges and high schools in 21 Kentucky counties.

RESEARCH Researchers in the UK College of Medicine Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine have a shared mission to improve outcomes after musculoskeletal injury. Our clinicians and scientists have expertise in three key areas: • Surgical techniques to reduce post-operative complication/re-injury and improve patient outcomes.

• Treatment options to potentially reduce recovery time while also decreasing the risk of re-injury.

• Mechanisms and treatment options for post-traumatic osteoarthritis to ensure long-term joint health after sports-related injury.

We collaborate with experts in rehabilitation science, advanced imaging, muscle physiology, nutrition, and pharmacology, among others. This teamwork allows us to study musculoskeletal injury from molecular, joint, and whole-person perspectives to improve health-related quality of life within the Commonwealth and beyond.

EDUCATION Our department is committed to training the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons and sports medicine providers.

What started in 1997 as 10 faculty and three residents per year has grown to over 40 full and part-time faculty, five residents per year, six orthopaedic surgical fellows and four non-operative sports medicine fellows. With the recruitment of top-notch faculty, we are now providing specialty care in the areas of foot and ankle, general orthopaedics, joint reconstruction, orthopaedic oncology, pediatric orthopaedics, spine, sports medicine, trauma, and hand and upper extremity.

orthopaedic internship, spending six months on orthopaedic surgery with the remainder of the year spent on required off-service rotations.

Residents in years 2 through 5 follow a program that repeats the complete lineup of orthopaedic subspecialties as junior and senior resident.

These rotations include orthopaedic trauma, hand, sports medicine, foot/ankle, spine surgery, hip/knee reconstruction, shoulder/elbow, and pediatric orthopaedics.

This recruitment not only provides the citizens of Kentucky and surrounding states with exceptional care but also enables us to provide the education and training necessary for graduating outstanding orthopaedic residents along with sports medicine, trauma, and joint reconstruction fellows.

In addition to the clinical rotations, numerous additional learning experiences support the education of the UK orthopaedics resident.

The department has vastly increased its research capacity, grants, and productivity, with the residents participating to a significant extent in this growth. Additionally, there are opportunities for education and leadership development through various conferences and growth in clinical skills by serving as team physicians for area sports teams.

The University of Kentucky Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Program is a five-year, fully accredited program that covers the breadth of the field of orthopaedics. The rotations equip the resident to be an incredible orthopaedic surgeon who is able to achieve excellence in fellowship and beyond caring for their patients.

The first year of the program is dedicated to an

The incredible individuals who form our resident team progress throughout their residency and achieve amazing fellowships – their top choices at the most competitive fellowships in the nation. The legacy of UK residents is that they are some of the hardest-working, highest-character members of their fellowships, practices, and professional societies.

Ryan Muchow, MD Associate Professor and Residency Program Director

The UK College of Medicine’s orthopaedic surgery residency program desires to prepare surgeons with the character, intellect, and surgical discipline required to become outstanding clinicians and leaders in patient care. The program’s strength is the dynamic group of individuals that form the resident team. Their comprehensive education occurs through surgical training in all the orthopaedic surgical sub-specialties, didactic and simulation, and advancing the field through research.

The residents experience their surgical training through a local, diverse set of hospitals on UK’s campus and within the city of Lexington: University of Kentucky Chandler Medical Center, UK Good Samaritan Hospital, Kentucky Children’s Hospital, Veteran’s Administration Hospital, Lexington Shriners Hospital for Children, and two local private hospitals.

Residents at the University of Kentucky have access to ample research opportunities through the department of orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine, Shriners Hospital for Children, and numerous basic science collaborations. Protected research time and support facilitate our commitment to advancing the field of orthopaedic surgery to the benefit of the patients we serve. ​

EXPANDING OUR EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF KENTUCKY Over the past year, we have expanded our clinical footprint by creating a joint reconstruction presence in Georgetown, Ky., offering a weekly outpatient clinic within our established family medicine practice. We also began offering a five-day-per-week general orthopaedics walk-in clinic at UK HealthCare Turfland. Additionally, four new athletic training contracts were added to our welldeveloped athletic training program, as well as significant collaboration with the Lexington Sporting Club, making UK Sports Medicine the official health care provider for the Lexingtonbased soccer club.

and Neurosurgical spine services and will include interventional pain, physical medicine & rehab and related therapies. This project will include an underground tunnel and sky bridge connecting the facility to the Albert B. Chandler Hospital - Pavilion A.

LOOKING FORWARD WITH A PURPOSE

The new UK Markey Cancer Center will be the home for the UK Complex Spine Institute. This will be a joint effort with Orthopaedic Surgery and Neurosurgical spine services and will include interventional pain, physical medicine & rehab and related therapies.

Anticipated to open in 2027 a new outpatient cancer treatment center and advanced ambulatory complex.

The new complex will be the future home of the UK Markey Cancer Center in addition to other ambulatory services. These include but are not limited to, minor procedures, endoscopy, diagnostics and imaging services, pharmacy, retail, outpatient clinics, meeting spaces, and necessary support spaces. Also included is a 2,131-space parking structure and the installation of new roadways and utility infrastructure to support the new complex.

The new UK Markey Cancer Center will be the home for the UK Complex Spine Institute. This will be a joint effort with Orthopaedic Surgery

In 2029, UK HealthCare will cease hospital operations at Good Samaritan. Inpatient services provided at Good Samaritan will be relocated to the Chandler Hospital campus, where a new patient tower is planned to replace the Good Samaritan beds and add 300 more.

Looking ahead, the UK Board of Trustees endorsed plans to continue to establish new smaller ambulatory sites, specifically to serve UK’s families closer to their homes as well as to address critical needs for medically underserved populations in Fayette County.

These sites will include orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine clinical services within Fayette County and surrounding areas.
