The Cornerstones of our Mission

As Distance Traveled evolves, so will the opportunities for our students who are a part of Distance Traveled.

Mission Statement

To drive forward diversity, equity, and inclusion within the field of orthopedic surgery and acknowledge the 'Distance Traveled' – the obstacles encountered and overcome on the path to achieving the goal of orthopedics, while also recognizing the importance of the journey – the support, mentorship, networks, and connections made along the way.
