Bryan Springer, MD, is the Medical Director and Co-Founder of Operation Walk Carolinas. He serves as Professor and Chair of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Mayo Clinic Florida, specializing in adult reconstruction of the hip and knee.

Dr. Springer is actively engaged in research, education, and national leadership. He is a member of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons, The Hip Society, and The Knee Society, and a Past President of the Musculoskeletal Infection Society.

His commitment to global outreach began more than a decade ago when he participated in two mission trips to Panama with Operation Walk Denver. Witnessing the transformative impact of joint replacement surgery on patients who otherwise had no access to such care inspired him to help launch Operation Walk Carolinas.

“Our team is committed to delivering life-changing joint replacement surgery to patients in underserved communities. I am honored to work alongside such a talented and dedicated group of volunteers to bring this care to those most in need.”
