The Ortho Connect website compliments the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation website. This online community has been developed specifically for patients and their families and is shaped by orthopaedic patients themselves. The information shared and questions asked help other patients through their surgical journey. This website provides patients and their families with information, tools and resources 24 hours a day, seven days a week. By logging in, patients gain access to expert advice, helpful articles and to community resources to help guide them through every step of their surgery. By becoming a member, patients can monitor their progress and connect with other members to share experiences and support each other. This website provides general, practical information only and should not replace consultation with, care or instructions provided by qualified healthcare professionals. The Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation does not endorse any product, treatment or therapy. The content of this website has been reviewed for accuracy, reliability and helpfulness to the intended audience by the Medical & Scientific Review Committee of the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation. While the Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation makes efforts to ensure the information on this website is accurate and reliable, it cannot guarantee that it is error free or complete. Before making medical decisions or if you have questions about your medical situation, speak to your surgeon.
