In this inaugural episode of The Global Elbow Podcast, our host Dr. Ana Catarina Angelo sits down with Dr. Shawn O’Driscoll for a rare, behind-the-scenes conversation that goes far beyond technique.

Shawn reflects on the influences that shaped his life and career — family, mentorship, curiosity — and how those experiences ultimately led to the formation of the Global Elbow Network (GEN). He speaks candidly about what GEN was meant to be from the beginning: a community built on generosity, shared learning, and lifting the next generation.

This is not a lecture. It’s a conversation about identity, legacy, and what it really means to build something that lasts.

A quiet, thoughtful look at the human side of one of elbow surgery’s most influential figures — and the values that continue to shape the global elbow community.
