Joseph Torg, MD, Professor Emeritus at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University (LKSOM), graduate of LKSOM and longtime influential orthopaedic surgeon and sports medicine physician at Temple University Hospital, and his wife Barbara Torg, established the Joe Torg Scholarship Fund at LKSOM.
