Fixated on Bone: How Orthopaedic Leaders Built Own the Bone
Fracture fixed, problem solved? Not even close. Dr. Andrea Spiker sits down with two orthopedic leaders, Dr. Marc Swiontkowski and Dr. Kyle Jeray, who helped turn a quiet crisis—osteoporosis-related fractures—into a national movement that’s changing how surgeons practice, teach, and lead. You’ll hear the untold origin story of Own the Bone and why it succeeded where earlier efforts stalled: simple, reliable interventions, clear follow-up, and a registry that reveals what works. There’s a proven playbook, real people at the AOA ready to help, and shared best practices that make programs sustainable. Owning bone health is an act of professionalism and empathy—treating the person behind the fracture and preventing the next one. If you’ve wondered how to move from “bone broke, me fix” to truly comprehensive care, this conversation gives you the history, the tools, and the push to start today.
