of arthritis, during an Orthopedic Lunch and Learn on Thursday, Oct. 20, at Cox
Medical Center Branson. As part of the event, the public is invited to tour the
Zimmer Mobile Learning Center and learn about treatment options for joint pain

“This event
will be a great opportunity for people to see how using technology, we can help
restore mobility, alleviate pain and improve the quality of life for people
suffering from joint pain,” says Dr. Efird.
