Where this comes from
Procedure volumes:CMS Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners, 2024. Fee-for-service claims only, so they exclude privately insured, Medicare Advantage and pediatric patients - volume is not comparable across practices with different patient mixes. These are billing records, not outcomes.
Training and practice: CMS Doctors and Clinicians list. A graduation year is when training finished, not years of orthopedic experience or a board certification. Affiliations come from Medicare enrollment and may be incomplete.
Registry details: NPPES. Subspecialties are self-reported at registration, not a board certification.
Credentials: Physician Assistant (PA-C)
A Physician Assistant is a licensed medical professional who practices under the supervision of a physician. In orthopedics, PAs assist in surgery, manage pre- and post-operative care, perform joint injections, and handle routine patient visits. PAs complete a master's-level program and pass a national certification exam.
