As a practicing Orthopaedic surgeon, I want to remind you how vital your donations are to the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation. I see so many lives that are dramatically affected by injury, disease and the resulting pain that so limits lives and living. I also see the amazing results of my work in improving outcomes and quality of life for my patients.

It is so rewarding to know that my intervention can change the trajectory of a patient’s life for the better. I and every orthopaedic surgeon benefit from the advances in research and innovations that your donations support. Your donations to the Foundation allow for us to drive care to new heights. What was at one time impossible, is now a daily reality, thanks to you. Thank you. I see the impact of your donations every day in the lives of my patients.

I believe so strongly in the work of the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation, that I am a volunteer member of the Board of Directors. My colleagues and I put your donations to work in support of the finest care for all Canadians. There is still so much to do of course, but your support allows us to make progress every day.

On behalf of my fellow Board members, my colleagues, my patients, and thousands of people across Canada that benefit from the work of the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation, please donate to our summer campaign, and thank you. Thank you so much. Your support makes such a difference in improving lives.

Dr. Monika Volesky
