The SIGMA Approach:

Defining Excellence Through Surgical Outcomes

At SIGMA Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, we believe that the future of healthcare is not defined by tradition, but by transformation. Our mission is simple but bold: to define excellence through surgical outcomes. This mission unites cutting-edge surgical expertise, business precision, and lessons drawn from aviation and sports performance into a single, powerful system designed to raise the standard of orthopedic care.

Aviation Principles for Safety and Performance

Borrowing from naval aviation and high-reliability organizations, SIGMA integrates:

  • Checklists to standardize safety.
  • Crew Resource Management (CRM) for team communication.
  • Simulation training for preparedness.
  • Incident reporting and just culture for transparency and continuous learning.

Just as aviation transformed safety through structure and accountability, SIGMA applies these principles to surgery, reducing error and elevating outcomes.

We apply Lean Six Sigma principles to every process — from scheduling to surgery, from recovery to patient engagement. This data-driven approach eliminates waste, reduces variability, and focuses on value. By measuring outcomes with precision and continually cycling through Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control, SIGMA ensures that every improvement is not random, but deliberate and repeatable.
Our roots in sports medicine shape the way we think about performance. Just as athletes measure, track, and improve, so too does SIGMA. Patients are not passive recipients of care but active participants in their own performance journey. Staff are not merely providers but coaches, strategists, and teammates working toward measurable wins.
