Welcome to News and Info Page

Dr. Powell recently returned from Shanghai, China with the US Soccer Women's National Team who competed in the FIFA Women's World Cup. The team earned third place and now prepares to compete for the gold medal at the Olympic Games in Beijing in August 2008. You can look at videos and photos from that trip Here >

A new addition to the website is the Multi-Media Programs Media Player. Here you can find streaming videos. The first presentation is on Operation Arthroscopy, an organization founded by Dr. Powell's partner, Dr. William Stetson, to further surgical education throughout the world using equipment donated by American orthopedic companies and staffed by volunteer orthopedic surgeons donating their time to travel and to teach new techniques to local surgeons. 

Dr. Powell and Dr. Stetson traveled to Havana, Cuba in 2004 and 2005 to teach Cuban orthopedic surgeons how to perform arthroscopic shoulder surgery.
In January, Dr. Powell began seeing patients from the Motion Picture and Television Fund from their Toluca Lake office. He is also currently accepting patients from the Westside Health Center at the Santa Monica office.

Dr. Powell and his wife, the Santa Monica-based Oculoplastic and Reconstructive surgeon Cynthia Boxrud, MD, recently collaborated on the design of a pillow to support the neck and reduce wrinkles around the eyes while sleeping. Dubbed the "Anti-Wrinkle Pillow," the patented device also gives support to the neck to reduce restlessness while sleeping. Considered a world expert on the origin and treatment of Dark Circles under the eye, Dr. Boxrud has also patented a Dark Circle Cream which is part of her Eyetopia Collection. For more information, see Here.
