Membership Contest Winners – We’re Paying Your Annual Dues!

Congratulations to Drs. Adam Hart (Montreal) and Ujash Sheth (Toronto) for being selected as the winners of this year’s COA membership contest.  Their 2022 membership dues are on us!  All members who renewed their 2021 membership and registered for the upcoming Annual Meeting by March 30 were entered to win their next year’s dues by random draw. Both Drs. Hart and Sheth have been COA members since early on in their training and we value their ongoing commitment and engagement.  Thank you!


For years the COA has provided me with a forum to connect with my peers from across the country, while also serving as strong advocate on key issues affecting the practice of  orthopaedic surgery within Canada.
– Dr. Adam Hart


The COA brings Canada’s orthopaedic community together, highlighting research and innovation, supporting our residents in training, promoting our practice and providing us with a common voice.
