The 2019 Arthroscopy Association of North America Traveling Fellowship-Los Gallos: New Friends on an Old Town Road

Abstract

We came in with high expectations, yet the Arthroscopy Association of North America (AANA) Traveling Fellowship far exceeded them. The 4 traveling fellows came from different backgrounds, different parts of North America, and different practice settings, including an independent private practice, a hybrid private-academic practice, the military, and academia. We were lucky to have been ushered along the way by our godfather, the distinguished John Richmond, M.D., Past-President of AANA and Associate Editor Emeritus of Arthroscopy, who was gracious enough to give his time to the expedition. Over the course of the journey, this gang came together quickly and forged relationships that will last a lifetime. We are extremely grateful to AANA for the privilege and will cherish the memories for years to come.
