Dr. Badia graduated from Cornell University and completed his medical degree at NYU. He served as the worldwide president of ISSPORTH and co-founded the globally recognized Miami Anatomical Research and Training Center (M.A.R.C.) and The Surgery Center at Doral, an elite state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery center. In 2014, his frustration with the health care system sparked the idea for the creation of specialized orthopedic urgent care centers to efficiently assess and treat a range of orthopedic and sports injuries. To that end, he founded OrthoNOW®, the only network of franchised orthopedic urgent care centers in the country with 42 centers slated to open coast to coast in the next five years. , He has revolutionized the delivery of healthcare to patients resulting in better outcomes, less wait times and decreased cost of care. Dr. Badia, comes from a family of physicians and is a descendant of the founder of the Cuban Academy of Sciences, who was motivated to become a surgeon to help care for people like his grandmother who suffered chronic pain from advanced arthritis with crippling deformities. Dr. Badia is invested in making a difference. While often in the limelight and a role model for physicians and students around the world, what’s most important to him lies right in his own backyard and that is his patients, his community and his family including proud parents Maria and Cristobal, sister Susana and his two children, Alessia and Alessandro. 3 Awards & Recognitions • 50+ Innovation Leaders" by MedCity News, 2017 • Entrepreneur-Summit At A Glance, American Dreamer, 2017 • South Florida Business Journal Top 100 Power Leaders in Healthcare, 2017 • Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce Healthcare Hero; Healthcare Professional Finalist, 2017 • South Florida Business Journal Top 100 Power Leaders in Healthcare, 2016 • Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce Healthcare Hero; Healthcare Professional Finalist, 2016 • Doral Business Council Legacy Award, given to leaders for significant impact on Doral community, 2015 • In Touch Today’s Work Comp Professionals Legacy Award, 2015 • Diversity MBA Magazine Top 100 under 50 Diverse Executive Leaders, 2014 • OrthoNOW named “Top Ten Franchise Opportunity” in healthcare in Entrepreneur magazine, 2014 • South Florida Business Journal Top 100 Power Leaders in Healthcare, 2014 • Honored Professor status, 14th annual Philadelphia Hand Course • Named to 100 Latinos Miami: annual award of most influential Latinos in the Miami community • Named to 45 top US hand surgeons in Becker’s Orthopedic & Spine Review • Miami “Movers and Shakers” of business community, 2009 • Voluntary Clinical Faculty, FIU School of Medicine, Dept. of Surgery • Honorary Faculty, annual Philadelphia Hand Courses, Philadelphia, 2008, 2010 • Honorary full member of orthopedic surgery dept.

  • Former World No. 8 Janko Tipsarevic Added to Odlum Brown Vanopen Men’S Draw
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JULY 16, 2015 FORMER WORLD NO. 8 JANKO TIPSAREVIC ADDED TO ODLUM BROWN VANOPEN MEN’S DRAW Vancouver, BC - Organizers of the Odlum Brown VanOpen are pleased to announce former World No. 8 Janko Tipsarevic has been granted a wildcard entry into the main draw of the men’s competition August 15 - 23 at Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver. The 31-year-old from Serbia spent 2014 recovering from a foot injury and is looking to get back to the form which made him a US Open quarterfinalist in 2011 and 2012. He also made it to the fourth round of singles at Wimbledon in 2007 and 2008, the French Open in 2012, and the Australian Open in 2013. “We are really excited to add a player of Janko’s stature to the men’s draw at this year’s tournament,” said Odlum Brown VanOpen Chairman Floyd Hill. “Anytime you can attract a player who’s been among the top 10 in the world and defeated the calibre of players that Janko has, it strengthens the event significantly and gives fans the opportunity to see another world-class player here in Vancouver.” The players that Tipsarevic holds victories over reads like a who’s-who in men’s tennis. He has two career wins against World No. 1 and fellow Serb Novak Djokovic. Tipsarevic has also beaten former World No. 1 players Carlos Moya, Marat Safin, Lleyton Hewitt, Juan Carlos Ferrero and Andy Roddick. In addition, he has thirteen career victories against other top 10 players, including four wins against Tomas Berdych, and one each against Fernando Gonzalez, Mikhail Youzhny, David Ferrer, James Blake, Gael Monfils, Andy Murray, and Juan Monaco.
