  • Mary O'Connor, Vori Health
    May 10 2023
    On today's episode of Who The Health Started That?, we're talking to Dr. Mary O'Connor, renowned orthopedic surgeon and co-founder of Vori Health, a virtual musculoskeletal medical practice that takes a biopsychosocial approach to patient care. Dr. O'Connor has spent her career in academic medicine, working at Mayo Clinic and Yale University, but she left that comfort to start something new. Why? Well, because traditional care for pain or other debilitating diagnoses can be frustrating, costly, and even unnecessary. Dr. O'Connor saw an opportunity to improve the way healthcare is delivered, and she co-founded Vori Health to do just that.
