Key Points:

“I am proud that AOFAS is making an effort to recognize women in foot and ankle orthopaedic surgery.”
Over the past 15 years, Dr. Chou has conducted several research studies to examine breast cancer prevalence among female orthopaedic surgeons.
Dr. Chou’s research results confirmed higher breast cancer prevalence among female orthopaedic surgeons than the general population, and in a later study, she discovered higher prevalence among female orthopaedic surgeons compared to women in other surgical specialties.
Currently, she is leading a study to evaluate cancer risk associated with radiation exposure in male and female orthopaedic surgeons.
I applaud AOFAS for taking that initiative with these awards.”
Funding for the AOFAS Women’s Leadership Initiative is provided by the Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Foundation, supported by a grant from Treace Medical Concepts, Inc.
