The American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery (ABFAS) is proud to announce the results of the 2020 Board of Directors election. Three director positions were open for the 2020 elections.

Joining the board for her first term is Dr. Katie M. Swanstrom from Washington. Two incumbents, Dr. Jeffery L. Giesking, of Wisconsin, and Dr. John T. Marcoux, of Massachusetts, will rejoin the board.

All three of these terms become effective on September 1, 2020, and will end on August 31, 2023.

ABFAS thanks all diplomates who took the time to vote in this election.  Of the 7,139 diplomates eligible to vote, 2,012 ballots were cast, creating a return of 28.18%, which is an increase of 16% or 283 additional votes from last year’s election.

Once again, please join us in welcoming Dr. Jeffery L. Giesking, Dr. John T. Marcoux, and Dr. Katie M. Swanstrom to the ABFAS Board of Directors.  We look forward to their future service and commitment to ABFAS.
