It is that time again. Time to resolve to continue good practices, change an undesired
behavior, accomplish a personal goal, or otherwise improve one's life. Time to declare
a New Year's resolution. For years I've done this and have spent an inordinate amount
of time trying to figure out what I should do. I can't say I have always lived up
to my resolutions, but I repeat the process each year. This year, it was easy for
me. I didn't have to think too hard about it. With my co-conspirator Dr Michael Dujela,
I was at all costs to launch the first combined AO / ACFAS Basic Principles of Foot
and Ankle Trauma and Reconstructive Surgery Course for DPMs. A venture that is a first
of its kind. A collaboration of 2 educational powerhouses the Arbeitsgemeinschaft
für Osteosynthesefragen (Association for the Study of Internal Fixation), commonly
referred to as the AO and the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS),
to improve performance through education, and thereby to optimize surgical skills
of the foot and ankle.
