"Orthopedics is a specialty where patients are usually quite healthy, but their life is being compromised by restricted motion, pain, or some other specific bone or joint-related problem. If this mechanical issue were addressed and improved, their quality of life would improve, often dramatically. I enjoy helping to solve that specific problem thus returning the patient to an active life," commented Dr. Caillouette.
