Op Walk Boston is an organization based at the Brigham that has an annual week long mission in Santo Domingo each spring. During this trip our team of 50 (surgeons, anesthesiologists, PT's, nurses, students and others) replaces hips and knees in about 45 indigent patients. We collect data on these patients pre and postoperatively. HMS students have participated in data collection and led papers on a range of topics from orthopedic outcomes to global health policy. Students should be interested in outcomes research and musculoskeletal disorders. There are opportunities for qualitative as well as quantitative research projects. You don't have to be committed to a career as an orthopedic surgeon; past students have had diverse career interests. It is desirable though not absolutely necessary for the student to speak Spanish reasonably well.

In annual week long trips to Santo Domingo, our "Operation Walk" team of surgeons, physical therapists, nurses and other professionals has performed total hip or knee replacement on about 200 low income Dominicans. We have gathered data on functional status, pain and quality of life pre and postoperatively on these patients. We have written a couple papers; the dataset is rich for further analysis by an interested student. The opportunity exists for travel to Santo Domingo with the Op Walk team in April 2013. Spanish language facility or fluency not critical but a distinct advantage.
