After a holiday with big meals and time on the couch watching football, it's time to get your body moving again! At AppOrtho, we're in the business of keeping people moving – doing the activities they love. This weekend, get out there & enjoy some physical activity.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at AppOrtho! We are grateful for the opportunity to serve the High Country community. We're also grateful for our amazing team, incredible patients, and our many friends and colleagues.
Iran's goalkeeper went down after clashing heads w/teammate. Cleared, only to lay down minutes later & beg for a sub. #WorldCup is off to a disastrous start on #concussion management. Sets an example that puts 10's of millions of global youth players at risk. Shameful.
‘Utter disgrace’: Iran goalkeeper allowed to play on at World Cup after head clash theguardian.com/football/2022/…
We need more of this education! Shout out to Mary, APTA NC President🙌 PTs provide preventative, conservative care and empower patients to “own” their health!

@apportho NO. Do not stop these are fantastic.
As the FIFA World Cup gets into full gear, we'd like to send a shoutout to all the physicians, clinicians, and trainers who keep the #FIFA23 World Cup teams healthy and on the field. #sportsmedicine #FIFA #FIFAWorldCup
Our colleagues at AppOrtho asked us to please stop telling Thanksgiving jokes, but we had a problem quitting cold turkey! Enjoy your holiday.
Is this how an orthopedist sees a turkey? This would be a great time for a bone pun but we fear it might not be 'humerus.' Have a great Thanksgiving! Enjoy time with family and friends.
We hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Thanksgiving Humor: "Why did the cranberry turn red?" "Because he saw the turkey dressing!" As we look toward the Thanksgiving weekend, we're grateful for our family, friends, co-workers, and the amazing team at AppOrtho.
We love seeing our logo up there behind Coach Clark as he does his weekly press conference. Love App State Football @AppState_FB and App State Athletics @appstatesports! #GoAppState #AppNation
