On this week's episode of Joint Action, we are joined by Dr Bryan Tan to discuss how mental health can contribute to the experience of living with osteoarthritis.

Dr Bryan Tan is an Orthopaedic Surgeon-Scientist in Singapore. He has experience practicing both locally and overseas having done several fellowships internationally including US and New Zealand. His research focuses on health service research, implementation science, population health and taking a biopsychosocial perspective in musculoskeletal health. He has a strong interest in administration, policy making and public health and applies a public health, system lens to musculoskeletal problems and currently sits on several health cluster-wide and national committees looking to deliver new models of care for musculoskeletal health.
