Dr. Stupay is a Board-Certified Orthopaedic surgeon who sub-specializes in surgery of the ankle and foot. She is originally from Northern Virginia, but as an ice hockey player spent her undergraduate years at Yale University where she was a 4-year ECAC All-Academic member of the Varsity Women’s Ice Hockey team, and earned her Bachelor’s degree in History of Science and Medicine. She then went on to obtain her medical degree at Tulane University in New Orleans, before returning to New England for residency and fellowship in Orthopaedic Surgery at the Harvard Combined Orthopaedic Residency Program, and Brigham & Women’s Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Fellowship. After 6 years in Boston, Kristen and her husband, Mark, and their dog Benton moved to Concord, where she joined Concord Orthopaedics. She has an interest in athletic injuries of the ankle and foot, ankle and foot fractures and trauma, and has training in minimally invasive techniques in foot & ankle surgery. When not working, she enjoys cycling, running, traveling (mostly on bikes), walking/running in the woods with Benton, trying to grow avocado plants, and sampling craft beers.
Educational Need: Athletic trainers provide care to a variety of patients across settings and the lifespan, and must be familiar with common and not so common foot and ankle injuries. Some of these injuries include ankle fractures, syndesmotic injuries, lisfranc and turf toe. Because athletic trainers are often the first point of contact with the healthcare system in these settings, recognizing and knowing how to treat or to whom to refer is paramount to optimize patient outcomes.
