Lewis Albert Sayre (1820-1900) is considered to be among the founding fathers of orthopaedic surgery in the United States. He studied medicine at the College of Physicians and Surgeons (now of Columbia University). Sayre later helped establish the first academic department of orthopaedics at the Bellevue Medical College where he served as their first Professor of Orthopaedics. Lewis Sayre treated a considerable diversity of musculoskeletal conditions and meticulously documented them with written notes, sketches, and photographs. As a public figure, his methods were controversial, attracting praise by some and inviting criticism by other prominent members of the international community. He made great strides for physicians, helping to charter the American Medical Association and to establish the weekly publication of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
刘易斯·阿尔伯特·塞尔（1820 - 1900）被认为是美国骨外科的奠基人之一。他在医师和外科医生学院（现哥伦比亚大学）学习医学。塞尔后来帮助在贝莱维医学学院建立了第一个骨科学术部门，并担任该学院的首任骨科学教授。刘易斯·塞尔治疗了各种各样的肌肉骨骼疾病，并用书面记录、草图和照片对其进行了细致的记录。作为公众人物，他的方法颇具争议，一些人对其赞誉有加，而国际社会的其他知名人士则提出了批评。他为医生们取得了巨大进展，帮助创立了美国医学协会，并促成了《美国医学协会杂志》的周刊出版。
