Healthcare in America has devolved into a bureaucratic nightmare where the words “authorization” and “third-party” seem to take precedence, and the REAL reasons for high costs have little to do with the actual delivery of care.

Alejandro Badia

I am a Miami and New York City based upper limb orthopedic surgeon with great interest in disrupting HOW orthopedic care is delivered. I founded OrthoNOW, a network of orthopedic walk-in centers, and currently seeking a strategic partner to replicate this model nationally, and internationally. During the pandemic, I wrote the book "Healthcare from the Trenches" and host a bi-weekly podcast, "Fixing Healthcare....from the Trenches" in order to shed light on the challenges we must overcome to truly reform US healthcare delivery.
