Rainbow Orthopaedic Update | Winter 2024
Visiting professorship educational events allow our team to spend focused time with key leaders in the pediatric orthopaedic field, ranging from rising stars to legends within the field.
Rainbow Visiting Professorship
In May 2023 at the Rainbow Visiting Professorship, Benjamin Shore, MD, MPH, FRCSC, pediatric orthopaedic surgeon at Boston Children’s Hospital, director of the Cerebral Palsy and Spasticity Center, and director of the pediatric fellowship program, traveled to Cleveland to share how to build a practice and treat complex neuromuscular patients. We enjoyed a great session featuring case presentations and research projects in Dr. Glotzbecker’s backyard. Dr. Shore then gave a fantastic and informative grand rounds at the hospital on pediatric compartment syndrome.
During his visit, Dr. Shore and members of the pediatric orthopaedic team toured the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, with Dr. Shore showing off his musical talent.
With a generous gift from Orthopediatrics, we are also proud to announce that the annual spring Rainbow Visiting Professorship will be renamed The George Thompson and Connie Poe-Kochert Rainbow Visiting Professorship.
Goldberg Visiting Professorship
At the Goldberg Visiting Professorship in October 2023, John Herzenberg, MD, FRCSC, FAAOS, from the International Center for Limb Lengthening offered sage feedback on our Allen Research Fellow’s key projects, as well as his thoughts on complex limb reconstruction cases. Dr. Herzenberg has been a leader in promoting both Ponseti treatment for clubfoot and complex limb lengthening and reconstruction over his 37-year career. It was fantastic to hear about his journeys in these two realms during his two talks.
During his visit, John Herzenberg, MD, and Raymond Liu, MD, toured the historic Bolton Brush collection, best known for establishing the Greulich and Pyle atlas of skeletal maturity determination.
