Daniel Kaplan:

Welcome to the Arthroscopy Journal Podcast. I'm Dr. Daniel Kaplan from NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City. Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Berkcan Akpinar, assistant professor of orthopedic surgery at NYU Langone, West Palm Beach, and a former co-resident of mine. He also did a sports medicine and shoulder fellowship at Harvard's Mass General Program under Doctors Elhassan and Warner, who are some of the most prolific trap transfers in the country.
