The American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) Board of Directors has unanimously selected Corey J. Parker, MPA, to serve as the next Chief Executive Officer. Parker, who currently serves as Chief Operating Officer of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, has more than 20 years of progressive executive leadership in healthcare, academic medicine, and national medical societies.

More than 50 highly qualified candidates responded to the best-practice nationwide search led by a distinguished Search Committee with the support of Tuft & Associates. After careful deliberation, the Committee was united in its conviction that Parker is the right leader for this moment—and for the next chapter of AOSSM’s organizational life cycle.
Parker will join the AOSSM Professional Team on April 6, 2026. He succeeds CEO Greg Dummer who announced his intent to retire last August. Dummer has served as CEO since July 2016 and will remain with the organization through the 2026 Annual Meeting to support a smooth and successful transition.
