A t Tulane Orthopaedics, the mission is simple: empower patients with information and guide them toward the best available treatment options. Their team of board-certified surgeons and physiatrists, with advanced sports medicine training, delivers high-quality, patient-centered care. As part of this esteemed program, Tulane Orthopaedics is proud to feature three female ortho- paedic physicians who are improving patients’ lives and providing exceptional care in the region. Dr. Kelly Hill, a former Stanford rower, manages sports injuries throughout the body, and she has a special interest in hip preservation. Dr. Lisa Jaubert per- forms musculoskeletal ultrasounds and interventional spine procedures. An avid marathoner and skier, she volunteers
with the National Ability Center in Park City, helping people with modifications enjoy the slopes. Dr. Jami Montagnino, a Tulane Athletics Hall of Fame induct- ee and former professional basketball player in Europe, treats joint pain and muscle/tendon injuries, specializing in diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound and ultrasound-guided procedures, including orthobiologics, such as Plate- let-Rich Plasma (PRP). Tulane Orthopaedics is deeply committed to serving New Orleans. They partner with local schools and youth sports programs, providing guidance on injury prevention, safe training practic- es, and timely evaluation of sports-relat- ed injuries. Working closely with coach- es, athletic trainers, and families, they ensure young athletes receive trusted care when they need it most. As female physicians in a traditionally male-dom-
inated specialty, they bring important representation, leadership, and serve as role models for the next generation. They provide comprehensive orthopedic care at multiple locations, including sports medicine and injury evaluation, fracture care and joint/soft-tissue treat- ments, advanced imaging for accurate diagnosis, concussion management for all ages, and non-surgical options such as physical therapy referrals, injections, and personalized recovery plans. When surgery is the best path forward, Dr. Hill specializes in minimally invasive procedures. From immediate post-injury guidance to long-term support and ex- pert surgical care, they provide complete solutions to keep the community moving safely and confidently, whether you’re a weekend warrior, student athlete, or professional.
