Launch of new Orthopaedic Website - OrthoEvidence

The aim of this website is to present top quality evidence within orthopaedics in an open access format. Thus the purpose of beginning this site stems from the need for pre-appraised clinical research within orthopaedics. Alongside a team of highly qualified orthopaedics, we have gathered over 900 users and would like to take the opportunity to extend an invitation for you to join the site and provide us with feedback.
