View MoreOrtho Joe reflects on the origins and evolution of OrthoEvidence as a response to two persistent problems in orthopedics: the impossibility of keeping up with an exploding literature and the difficulty of judging what evidence to trust. The discussion traces OE’s roots in the evidence pyramid and McMaster collaborations, its focus on rigorously appraised randomized trials, partnerships with associations and hospitals, and the development of a proprietary AI-enabled search tool built on 14,000+ RCTs. The episode closes with a meditation on creativity inspired by a visit to Prince’s Paisley Park and a comparison with Michelangelo’s David, emphasizing that genius emerges from disciplined, sustained work.
