Dear Colleagues,

I was just notified of the passing of one of our former faculty members. Dr. John Hall was a giant in pediatric orthopaedic surgery and previously was the Chief of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Hospital for Sick Children prior to departing to Boston to take on the role as Chief of Orthopaedic Surgery at Boston Children’s Hospital. Dr. Hall was known as an outstanding pediatric spine surgeon and leader. Please follow this link to the obituary:

I will be making a donation on behalf of our Division.
