You may soon notice something slightly different — APTA Orthopaedic will be APTA Orthopedics.
This small but intentional change is part of our continued effort to align with standard U.S. terminology and maintain consistency across APTA's national brand. While the spelling will be different, everything else will remain the same.
We’ll still be your trusted source for orthopedic physical therapy education, resources, and community — just with a simplified name that reflects our national identity more clearly.
Why the change?
✓ Aligns with American English spelling
✓ Matches APTA’s brand style
✓ Reflects standard usage across the U.S. healthcare landscape
We completed our full rebrand from AOPT to APTA Orthopaedic earlier this year. As part of ongoing refinement, the Board has approved this naming update to help reinforce clarity and consistency moving forward.
Thank you for being part of the APTA Orthopedics community. We’re excited about what’s ahead — and grateful to grow with you.
