Dr. Dujela graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor’s in Science. He continued his Graduate education studying Genetics at Westchester University before going on to complete his Podiatric Medical Degree with the Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine. He completed his surgical residency training under Dr. Gerard Yu at the Foot and Ankle Surgical Residency Training Program, at University Hospitals Health System, in Southwest General Cleveland, Ohio. His journey continued into private practice and a desire to seek additional training experiences internationally. Tune in, as he describes this process and how he took his family with him on this journey through a Multi-Center, European AO Fellowship with multiple leaders in Foot and Ankle Surgery. Come along as he describes the opportunity he had to work in different hospitals in six different cities throughout Germany and Switzerland. He then went onto complete a US based Fellowship program under Dr. Thomas Lee, MD and Dr. Chris Hyer DPM at the Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center in Columbus Ohio before returning to his practice in Washington.

We also discuss his experiences working in a multitude of leadership positioning throughout the profession including: current President-elect for the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons; Chairman for the Annual Scientific Conference for the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons this year. He is the Past Chairman and a 5-year committee member of the National Education and Scientific Affairs Committee with the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and has been Instrumental faculty in the collaborative effort between the AO Foundation and the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons to bring back the basic surgical principal courses offered through the AONA. It is no surprise, with all these accomplishments that he has been inducted into the leadership Hall of Fame with the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.
