Dallas-based spine surgeon Michael Rimlawi, DO, has launched a scholarship program for undergraduate and graduate students interested in going into medicine.
Dr. Rimlawi works as a minimally invasive spine surgeon at his own private practice. Scholarship recipients will be selected by the physician by means of an essay contest, according to an April 1 news release. Students will each receive $1,000 toward their medical education.
Dr. Rimlawi was the first surgeon in the U.S. to perform a minimally invasive XLIF procedure using Globus Medical’s technology. He has also patented three medical devices for spine surgery.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
