MD West ONE is honored to be the Presenting Sponsor of the 2024 Nebraska Walk to Cure Arthritis
The Arthritis Foundation of Nebraska's Walk to Cure Arthritis, held on Saturday, June 1, 2024, turned out to be another amazing event for the Arthritis Foundation. MD West ONE is honored to be the Presenting Sponsor thanks to the generous donations of Dr. Erik T. Otterberg and Dr. Jon Uggen, both hip and knee orthopedic specialists at MD West ONE. Dr. Otterberg and Dr. Uggen treat many patients affected by the various forms of arthritis. Therefore, supporting a cause that raises the crucial funds needed for research, resources, and cures is something we're passionate about here at MD West ONE.
Did you know 1 in every 4 Americans has arthritis? That makes arthritis the nation's leading cause of disability.
Two-thirds of those affected are under age 65, including 300,000 children. Arthritis is painful and debilitating and diminishes the quality of life for those affected. But every day, we’re making more headway through scientific discoveries that bring us closer to a cure. Whether you’re an arthritis warrior yourself or care about someone who is, you can support this cause with us!
