Arthroscopy Worldwide Information

Arthroscopy Worldwide is a non-profit organization founded by Dr. Steven Meier in 2003. The purpose of Arthroscopy Worldwide is to encourage the usage of and disseminate the proper techniques for advanced-level arthroscopic surgery throughout the world, especially in developing regions of South America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Dr. Meier, and an ever-changing group of volunteer surgeons and practitioners (including his brother, Jeffrey Meier, DO), donate their time and experience to Arthroscopy Worldwide by regularly traveling the globe in order to bring state-of-the-art, minimally invasive surgical techniques to emerging societies. This is accomplished not only by performing surgery in these areas but also by sharing the latest surgical practices with local surgeons so they are not only exposed to these techniques, but are able to safely continue to perform these advanced procedures after the Arthroscopy Worldwide team has departed.
