Washington post WWW site, viewed January 27, 2023 (in obituary dated January 24, 2023: orthopedist Dr. J. Richard Steadman; died Jan. 20 at 85 at his home in Vail, Colo. The Steadman Clinic in Vail--founded by Dr. Steadman in 1990 after moving from South Lake Tahoe, Calif.--became a top destination for injured athletes still at the top of their game and hoping to squeeze out some more years of performance. John Richard Steadman was born in Sherman, Tex., on June 4, 1937. He joined an orthopedics practice in South Lake Tahoe in 1970 and became part of the medical pool for the U.S. Ski Team, at times traveling for events around the world. In 1976, he was named the team's chief physician. (He was with the team until the 2006 Winter Games in Turin.) In 1988, Dr. Steadman created a sport medicine research group, now known as the Steadman Philippon Research Institute, which has one of the largest databases on cases, treatment details and patient outcomes)
