Dr. Truumees practices at Seton Spine & Scoliosis Center in Austin, Texas. He graduated from college and medical school with honors from the University of Virginia and completed his residency at The Cleveland Clinic, and a spine fellowship at William Beaumont Hospital.
With over 14 years of editorial leadership experience, including six as editor of Spineline, Dr. Truumees replaces S. Terry Canale, MD.
AAOS Now is a “unique publication in the orthopaedic world that offers updates on the science of orthopedics, as well as the legal, political and socio-economic implications of an evolving profession. The advances in orthopedics and healthcare are coming rapidly,” said Dr. Truumees. “There’s a lot to keep on top of, which is a challenge. It’s a rewarding role to help orthopedic surgeons to sort through all of the information and to bring them what they need to know.”
