Résumé

How do you fix diversity within orthopaedic surgery? Start with self. The solutions to diversity problems are not inherently elusive. I would submit that we are failing in the diversity arena because we have yet to agree on a definition and we resultingly have even less of a consensus on a potential solution. We as a profession should recognize that solutions are not societal. They are individual. Moreover, the obstacles that we face in overcoming our diversity ailments are not societal. They too are individual. Before we can set upon solving our collective problems, we must speak to individuals.
