Each year, the Faculty of Medicine recognizes faculty and staff members for excellence in teaching, research, administration, innovation and public service.
We are proud to share that two distinguished members of UBC Orthopaedics have been honored with prestigious 2023 UBC Faculty of Medicine Awards. Their exceptional contributions to clinical teaching and leadership have not only elevated the field of orthopaedics but have also reshaped the future of medical education.
