The Duke Orthopaedics team congratulates Madison Celentano, MBA, LAT, ATC, OPE-C,  an athletic trainer at Duke Orthopaedics of Apex, for going above and beyond for her patient at the Duke Ortho Apex Clinic who was there for a simple follow-up visit.  In this case, Madison was walking the patient to an X-ray and noticed that the patient’s calf was swollen. She then decided to measure his calves and saw a discrepancy in the size and texture of the patient’s calves.
