The Orthopaedic Residency Cadaveric Education Curriculum was developed by Associate Program Director Kanu Goyal, MD, and several others in order to supplement clinical operative experience with surgical cadaveric instruction, and education for our residents. Labs take place in the newly opened state-of-the-art Crane Sports Medicine Institute Surgical Skills Lab. The first lab took place in October, 2020.
With the help of all orthopaedic faculty, and the collaboration of the Crane Lab staff, the curriculum is a perennial year-long program consisting of forty two-hour sessions. In September, we will kick off the 3rd year of this program. The labs are mandatory for all residents and each lab session has been designed for a specific PGY level, PGY2 through PGY5, with specific pre-lab instruction, lab objectives, and post-lab evaluation. The ORCEC lab series is a true highlight of our residency program!

Congratulations Dr. Bishop!
We are saddened to share that John Roberts, MD, beloved Ohio State University orthopaedic surgeon, passed away Thursday, June 9. Dr. Roberts was known as the “face of Ohio State Orthopaedics” for more than 40 years.
Born in 1930 in Idaho, Dr. Roberts completed his undergraduate degree at Stanford University in 1952. He then earned his medical degree at Northwestern University in 1956 and completed a surgical internship at Cook County Hospital in Chicago. In 1957, he married his wife of 65 years, Carole Miller, and began service as a captain in the U.S. Army, serving as a battalion and flight surgeon at Ford Richardson, Alaska until 1959. After his discharge from the Army, he moved to Detroit, where he completed a general surgery residency at Henry Ford Hospital in 1960.
Dr. Roberts arrived in Columbus in 1960 to begin his orthopaedic surgery residency at White Cross Hospital (now Riverside Methodist Hospital) and Columbus Children’s Hospital (now Nationwide Children’s Hospital). The program that he completed in 1963 was integrated with The Ohio State University. As such, Dr. Roberts’ career at Ohio State began with his appointment as a “demonstrator and resident” in the Division of Orthopaedic Surgery in 1962. After a brief tenure in private practice in Columbus, lasting from 1964-1967, Dr. Roberts was appointed as an assistant professor of Surgery in the Division of Orthopaedics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. In 1977, he was promoted to associate professor. He served continuously at Ohio State until his retirement in 2008. Dr. Roberts was instrumental in the creation of the Othopaedic Prison Service at Ohio State, which he began in 1994 and directed until 2008.
Dr. Roberts was a devoted educator of Orthopaedic Surgery for over 40 years. During that time, he trained more than 200 orthopaedic residents and hundreds of medical students. Many local orthopaedic surgeons regard him as their mentor. In 2000, Dr. Thomas Mallory, former chair of the Department of Orthopaedics, created the John B. Roberts Award for Excellence in Orthopaedics, an award that has been given to an exemplary Ohio State medical student every year since its inception. In 2012, the orthopaedics faculty designated Dr. Roberts a “Living Legend.” In 2012, grateful former residents established the John B. Roberts Educational fund to further support resident education. Upon his retirement in 2008, Dr. Roberts was approved for emeritus status. He remained active in the program and community for many more years.
Dr. Roberts has been quoted as saying “since I couldn’t be an airline pilot, this isn’t a bad way to make a living!” Countless alumni of The Ohio State University orthopaedic program attribute their success to Dr. Roberts. He will be remembered for his kind spirit and his dry sense of humor.
The Scioto Country Club was the scene on Friday, June 3rd, for our first in-person graduation celebration since 2019! A good time was had by all as we celebrated our residency and fellowship graduates as well as our award winners.
We are happy to congratulate the following graduating trainees and award winners!
