Learning Never Stops at MSR! 📚💪
Yesterday, we had another fantastic MSR Clinical Skills Lab with Dr. Samuel Li, orthopedic spine surgeon at Nirschl Orthopaedic Center in Arlington, VA.
Dr. Li shared valuable clinical pearls on spine diagnoses, treatment strategies, rehabilitation considerations, and how to identify when a patient may—or may not—be a good candidate for surgery. One of our biggest takeaways was his strong belief in conservative care first and a multidisciplinary approach involving physicians, physical therapists, and patients working together to achieve the best possible outcomes.
We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Li for sharing his knowledge, experience, and precious time with our team. It was a great evening of learning, discussion, questions, and plenty of fun along the way!
Great people. Great atmosphere. Great team. And always learning.
At MSR, learning never stops. 🧠💪
