The OrthoNebraska Symposium strives to provide the most relevant and up-to-date education on current research, patient cases, surgical & rehabilitation techniques in the orthopaedic and sports medicine fields. Supported by a faculty of fellowship-trained orthopaedic and sports medicine providers, we aim to provide regional athletic trainers, physical therapists, nurses, advanced practice providers and medical physicians with ample quality educational opportunities. In addition, the symposium boasts a number of external partners and experienced professionals who partner to provide additional healthcare topics. In the past, these have included; general medicine, dermatology, psychology, complementary and alternative medicine, nutrition; as well as legal, ethics and law enforcement/first responders and their role in the care and safety of athletes and patients.
