Dennis Turner+FollowHow UNM’s trauma fellowship changed local careAlumni from the University of New Mexico’s Orthopaedic Trauma Fellowship just marked 20 years of shaping the way trauma care works in our region. What’s really stood out is how Dr. Thomas DeCoster’s hands-on teaching style pushed doctors to keep learning long after their training. His influence is everywhere—from the way local hospitals handle emergencies to the support networks among surgeons. It’s wild to think how one program has quietly transformed patient care for so many New Mexicans. Anyone here experienced the impact of these fellows, either as a patient or a colleague? #News #UNM #MedicalEducation00Share
