Tiny Bone Doc is a daily newsletter with tidbits of orthopedic knowledge, made easily digestible for busy residents. On weekdays, I share one thing I learned that day. Every Sunday (*S*), we take a deeper dive.


Why create a daily newsletter?

Residency is busy. Even though we aspire to study every day, sometimes it just doesn’t happen. Personally, I found it hard to even keep up with the news, so I subscribed to the NY Times Morning Briefing. This short daily email made it easier to catch up on the most relevant news before work. And subsequently, it sparked the idea of writing down tidbits of ortho info and sharing them with others.

I subscribed. Where the tidbits at?

First of all, thanks!

Secondly, if you don’t receive a welcome email immediately, it might be stuck in the Promotions, Spam, Quarantine, etc folder.

Thirdly, if you don’t get an email the next morning (unless it’s Saturday), then I’m definitely in spam limbo. Please add tinybonedoc@substack.com to your Contacts or Trusted Sender list.

Email me at tinybonedoc@substack.com if you have any issues.
