Author Information
Anthony A. Romeo, MD grew up in Pocatello, Idaho in a medically-focused family—his father and all 5 of his siblings work as health care providers. After graduating as valedictorian of his high school and captain of the football team, Dr. Romeo completed his Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Notre Dame, where he continued his efforts as a varsity football player. He earned his Medical Degree from the St. Louis University School of Medicine where he was selected Best All-Around Student at graduation. He completed his orthopedic surgery internship and residency at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, followed by an Advanced Clinical Experience as a shoulder and elbow surgery fellow at the University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle, guided by Dr. Frederick A Matsen III. Dr. Romeo has spent his career in pursuit of excellence in the field of shoulder, elbow, and sports medicine surgery by pioneering new approaches and developing advanced orthopedic implants and surgical procedures. He serves as Executive Vice President at the Dupage Medical Group Musculoskeletal Institute and has a busy surgical practice focused on all problems related to the elbow and shoulder. He is an active member of the Major League Baseball Research Committee. Dr. Erickson, Dr. Romeo, and colleagues have published more than 50 publications related to baseball sports medicine. Dr. Romeo is also a leading member of numerous professional societies, including Past President of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons; an editor and reviewer on several orthopedic medical journals; and the Chief Medical Editor of Orthopaedics Today. With a total of over 450 peer-reviewed publications, he has contributed to the thought-leadership, education, technology, and innovation behind incredible treatment advances of elbow and shoulder conditions seen over the past 3 decades. He lives in the Chicago, Illinois metropolitan area with his wife and youngest daughter. Brandon J. Erickson, MD grew up in Marlboro, New Jersey, and attended the Academy of Allied Health and Science for high school, where he was fortunate enough to have teachers like Richard Tempsick, who helped develop his passion for the medical field. He earned his BS at the University of Notre Dame, where he majored in premedicine, minored in business, and played varsity football as a wide receiver after walking onto the team his freshman year. He then attended Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston, Massachusetts, where he met his future wife, Carrie. He and Carrie couples matched to Chicago, where Carrie completed an internal medicine residency at Northwestern University and Brandon completed his orthopedic surgery residency at Rush University. Brandon’s mentors from Rush, including Bernard Bach Jr., Charles Bush-Joseph, Anthony Romeo, Nikhil Verma, and many others, helped drive him toward a career in sports medicine while several other mentors, including Monica Kogan and Marc Zussman, provided a framework for excellent patient care and management of trauma. Brandon then completed his sports medicine and shoulder fellowship at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, New York, while Carrie joined the hospitalist staff at Memorial Sloan Kettering where she continues to work. Brandon now practices in New York at the Rothman Orthopaedic Institute and serves as an assistant team physician for the Philadelphia Phillies. Brandon and Carrie were blessed with their first daughter, Brooke Anna Erickson, in early 2021.
