Making a Difference Through Mentoring

Only 1.9% of practicing orthopaedic surgeons are black. Through multi-faceted mentoring programs, the Gladden Society is cultivating the next generation of underrepresented orthopaedic surgeons.

If you are interested in becoming a mentor or are a medical student, or resident seeking an orthopaedic mentor, visit our mentorship committee page for more information.
