BROC is proud to offer an innovative surgical option for patients with painful arthritis at the base of the thumb. Dr. Rick Ahmad and Dr. Ryan Bliss are using the KeriMedical TOUCH® CMC 1 Prosthesis, a thumb joint replacement designed to help relieve pain and improve mobility.

By replacing the damaged joint at the base of the thumb, this innovative prosthesis offers eligible patients another option to improve hand function and get back to the activities they enjoy.

Don't let thumb pain keep you from the things you love. Schedule an appointment today at brortho.com.

We had a wonderful time welcoming LSU students to our main campus as part of LSU ’s Geaux Pre-Health Week! 🐯

Students heard from team members across our organization during a panel discussion, gaining insight into a variety of healthcare careers and asking great questions about what it’s like to work in their respective fields.

Then, we hit the halls for a tour of BROC! At each stop, students took on a hands-on challenge, putting their skills to the test while learning more about the different services and specialties that make up our organization.

We loved sharing what we do, connecting with these future healthcare professionals, and giving them a glimpse into the many career paths available in healthcare.

Thank you to LSU for including BROC in this exciting week! We can’t wait to see where these future healthcare leaders go! 💙

🩺 BROC in the Classroom at LSU! 💜💛

Dr. Timothy Bowlin recently participated in LSU’s inaugural Geaux Pre-Health Week, leading a hands-on class on flexor tendon anatomy and injuries at the LSU Kinesiology’s Rathbone Human Anatomy and Cadaver Lab.

As a board-certified Elbow, Hand & Wrist Specialist, Dr. Bowlin shared his clinical expertise with LSU students pursuing careers in healthcare, including medicine, physician assistant studies, dentistry, physical therapy, occupational therapy and other health professions.

Experiences like this help future healthcare professionals connect classroom learning with clinical practice as they prepare to care for patients in their chosen fields.
