Consultant
What does that mean?
Dr. Cascio worked as a consultant with Smith Nephew and Johnson and Johnson/Depuy Mitek to help design instruments for safer hip arthroscopy. Traditionally, the way medicine advances is for cutting edge companies to team up with experienced surgeons to develop better, safer, faster ways to treat patients.
Dr. Cascio has teamed up with Smith and Nephew, a major orthopaedic company, to develop better hip and shoulder arthoscopy techniques and instruments. A big part of this partnership is teaching. Dr. Cascio teaches multiple arthoscopy courses to practicing orthopaedic surgeons around the country. Dr. Cascio uses not only Smith and Nephew products, but whatever products that he thinks are the best for your individual situation.
Dr. Cascio is currently working with Maruho to design tools and implants for hip, knee, and shoulder surgery and with Ingen for Shoulder Replacement.
Dr. Cascio is a consultant for MiMedx for amniotic tissue and regenerative medicine. He has developed a method for incorporating the graft into rotator cuff repairs. Arthrosurface for shoulder resurfacing; following patients as part of a clinical study for shoulder resurfacing for 10 years.
Dr. Cascio has taught other surgeons how to perform shoulder replacements, hip and knee and shoulder arthroscopy, and regenerative medicine.
