2024 ORS Member Survey

Hello Valued ORS Member,

Every two years we ask you to participate in a survey that helps us to gauge your satisfaction with ORS offerings that include programs, events, and activities. Please take the next 10 - 20 minutes to provide feedback on your membership. We will draw one from every 50 respondents to receive a $25 Amazon gift card to thank you for your time.

The survey is anonymous. However, after you complete the survey, you will receive a separate form field to complete if you want to participate in the drawing for the gift card. Your name in the drawing is not connected to your survey responses so anonymity is maintained.

Please complete the survey by September 30, 2024, at 11:59 PM CST.

Thank you for all you do for the ORS and the orthopaedic arena.

Respectfully,
The ORS Membership Committee
