Doctor Patient Trust Day was established to raise awareness of the ethics and code of conduct that all healthcare professionals adhere to.
It is a day to raise awareness of the significance of providing accurate information to physicians.
It is also a day for physicians to ensure they adhere to the most recent standards for maintaining patients’ trust.

The Quest Program provides direct services to qualifying elementary gifted and talented students who have demonstrated outstanding intellectual and academic ability. The program focuses on the development of intellectual skills, intellectual curiosity, independence, and responsibility while encouraging originality and creativity.
Thank you to the Quest program for having us! The future looks bright!

Shout out to the OM AT’s! You are the best! 🌟
A fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon elects to spend an extra year after their required five years of general orthopedic surgery training, focusing on a specific ‘specialty’ in orthopedics like sports medicine or total joints.
This allows the fellowship trained physician to become an ‘expert’ in their chosen specialty field.
Congratulations to Tami Keller on her 25 years of service at Ortho Montana today!
