🌟 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲, 𝗙𝘂𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 🌟

At University Orthopedics, we know 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 #𝟭 in our region doesn’t just come from the operating room or advanced technology—it comes from the 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲’𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿.

Culture doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time, consistency, and intentional effort. That’s why we invest in both the big and small moments that bring our team together and remind them how essential they are.

𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗼𝘁—these are more than just fun perks. They are moments of connection that strengthen our bond as a team and build a workplace where people feel supported, valued, and motivated.

And when our staff feels that way, it flows directly into the care we provide. The culture we nurture at UOC doesn’t just boost morale—it elevates patient care and keeps us at the very top of our region.

Every celebration, every gesture, every reminder of appreciation is a step toward a stronger team, a stronger culture, and ultimately, stronger outcomes for our patients.

☕🎉 Here’s to our amazing staff, the culture we continue to build together, and the patients who inspire us to keep striving for excellence every single day.

Sometimes the path to medicine isn’t a single moment—it’s the people you meet along the way.

For Dr McClellan, it was during his senior year of high school and early college years. He was fortunate to cross paths with mentors who left a deep impression on him and ultimately set him on the road to becoming an orthopedic surgeon.

One of those people was Dr. John Anastasi! . As a freshman, he watched him perform surgery at a time when he was pioneering and revolutionizing cardiac bypass surgery.

As per Dr McClellan, “He wasn’t just a brilliant surgeon—he was personable, skilled, and no doubt quite entertaining! He changed lives for the better, and quite literally saved countless lives. He treated patients exceptionally well, and was very well respected”.

This week, he had the true honor of caring for his family as patients. Talk about a full circle moment.

“To treat someone who once inspired me to enter medicine—knowing he trusted me with his care—was both humbling and incredibly meaningful”.

Dr Anastasi is still rocking and rolling, continues to do cardiac surgery in Ohio.

At University Orthopedics, it’s about more than just procedures. It’s about trust, relationships, and the lifelong connections that remind us why we do what we do.

John Anastasi

Is there someone you want to recognize who inspired you to become who you are today??
