What makes Anne Arundel Orthopedics unique? The creation and implementation of the scribe and tech team was designed to create an environment similar to team sports. While each individual has a different role/skill they are held accountable for, working together is equally as important. Collaboration exists in all aspects of life, and through it, we thrive both individually and together. The development of the scribe-tech team is something I genuinely believe in and am very proud to be a part of.
