When it comes to orthopedic care, research isn’t optional — it’s essential. That’s why OrthoCarolina doesn’t just follow the latest breakthroughs. They create them.

Through the OrthoCarolina Research Institute (OCRI) — an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit — OrthoCarolina is advancing orthopedic care by challenging the status quo, pioneering new inventions, and innovating ways to improve outcomes for patients in their community.

Here’s what sets OrthoCarolina apart:

  • The same physicians providing care are the ones conducting the research behind it.
  • Patients benefit from care that’s rooted in ongoing innovation and evidence.
  • OrthoCarolina is the region’s trusted, local leader in orthopedic research.

Orthopedic research drives better care, and OrthoCarolina is leading the way. Want to see how?
