The most important piece of advice I'd give to people who are looking to get into orthopedics is just make sure that you understand it's a long road but very fulfilling and that you can ultimately make a huge impact in other people's lives. You'll make a great living but you're going to hear a lot of discouraging words along the way and just realize it's a process. You're not going to have a real job until you're in your early 30s but once you get there it's it's a very rewarding and fulfilling job.
