A doctor visit can bring anxiety, so our goal is to give you peace of mind by going above and beyond and providing extraordinary care from the moment you arrive.
What to Expect
Our orthopedic evaluations are customized to meet your needs. We approach each appointment with the understanding that you’re a unique individual with unique circumstances.
Your orthopedic evaluation may include one or more of the following:
- A thorough review of your medical history (paperwork + discussion)
- A comprehensive physical examination
- Diagnostic testing to help determine the cause of your symptoms
- Imaging studies to evaluate injury, damage, or underlying concerns
- Lab work, if needed
During your visit, we’ll assess your overall health, your current level of pain, and possible causes of discomfort. Your provider will also evaluate how pain affects your ability to perform everyday activities such as:
- Standing up
- Walking
- Sitting down
- Lying down
This comprehensive evaluation, along with appropriate testing, helps confirm or rule out potential diagnoses and allows our team to create the right treatment plan for you.
