After completing his fellowship, Dr. Evans joined the faculty in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Loyola University Medical Center and Hines Veterans Administration Hospital in 2005. In 2014, Dr. Evans was appointed Director of Surgical Simulation Education and Assessment for Loyola University Medical Center to further his interest in training residents and medical students. Dr. Evans was recently appointed as an Illinois delegate of the AAOS Board of Counselors. Additionally, he is currently serving as Assistant Editor for Social Media for the Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine and Chairman of the Electronic Media Editorial Board. Dr. Evans is also an editorial reviewer for the Journal of Surgical Education. Dr. Evans enjoys providing care to athletes of all levels and is the head team physician for the USA National University men’s hockey team. Dr. Evans is also a team physician for Loyola University Chicago, the University of St. Francis, and Lewis University, as well as local high school athletics.
Dr. Evans’ current research interests are focused on the role of simulation in medical education and patient safety. Other areas of scholarly interest include orthobiologics, cartilage injury and biomechanics. Outside of medicine, Dr. Evans enjoys coaching and playing hockey, and spending time in the outdoors skiing, scuba diving, and hiking in the north woods of Minnesota.
