DR. John H. Moe Exhibit

IN 1974, DR. MOE FOUNDED THE TWIN CITIES SCOLIOSIS CENTER. In 1973, he had obtained authority from the University of Minnesota School of Medicine to establish an affiliation with Fairview Hospital. The following year, he was named professor emeritus of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery as he directed his effort toward establishing the Twin Cities Scoliosis Center at the Fairview-St. Mary’s Medical Office Building, adjacent to both hospitals and connected to them by skyways.

Under Dr. Moe’s direction, the center grew to become one of the world’s major resources of patient care, scoliosis research, and physician training in the field of spinal deformity. Physicians from all over the world sought his advice and counsel and came to study with him. [4]
