đź“Ł From Capitol Hill to Saratoga Springs!
NYSSOS was proud to join the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) in Washington, D.C., this week to advocate for orthopaedic surgeons, our patients, and the future of musculoskeletal care.
Our collective voice matters — in Washington, D.C. and here in New York. That same spirit of advocacy, collaboration and leadership is at the heart of the 2026 NYSSOS Annual Meeting, taking place November 20–21 in Saratoga Springs.
Join your colleagues from across New York for two days of education, connection, innovation and important conversations about the future of orthopaedics. Register today and be part of one statewide orthopaedic community: https://loom.ly/mPZvjcw
