Happy Saint Patrick’s Day from Summit Orthopedics
On this festive Irish holiday, we celebrate the arrival of a long-awaited spring.

“St. Patrick’s Day is an enchanted time—a day to begin transforming winter’s dreams into summer’s magic.”
—Adrienne Cook
Winters are always infamous in the Twin Cities, but this season has been frostier than most. The sound of melting snow is an especially cheering backdrop for this year’s St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in Saint Paul; a city with a proud Irish heritage.
All of us at Summit Orthopedics hope you enjoy the wearin’ of the green on St. Patrick’s Day, as we all look forward to leaving the snow behind and celebrating the greenery that announces Spring’s arrival.
