About Us
WSOA Mission Statement
The Washington State Orthopedic Association is a non-profit
corporation founded in 1979 to provide socioeconomic and
political information to our members, policymakers and the
public about issues that affect orthopedists' ability to
provide timely and top-quality musculoskeletal health care
services to patients in all settings.
We seek to unite orthopedic surgeons from around the state
in promoting the highest standards in their practice. We
will work to educate legislators, policymakers and the
public about the effect that political and policy decisions
may have on the practice of orthopedics. We will support
changes in public policy and law that will enhance our
members' ability to provide care to patients with musculoskeletal
conditions, and oppose initiatives that hinder our ability
to provide care to patients.
We will continue to collaborate with other medical societies,
citizens' groups and organizations in joint efforts to
educate our members, patients and policymakers, and to
enhance the health of citizens of Washington State.
