🎥 “This is the life of a surgeon.”

Just another day at TOSM — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

The other night, a patient came in with a fractured humerus and a torn patellar tendon. Fast forward to Dr. Nicholas Montemurro in the OR repairing the patellar tendon, and on Monday, our Director of Trauma Surgery, Dr. Dennis Murphy, steps in to fix the humeral shaft fracture.

Two complex injuries, one incredible team. 💪
