Treatment

Our patients benefit from technological advances such as joint replacement and the arthroscope that allows the orthopedist to look inside a joint. But your visit will start with a personal interview and physical examination. This may be followed by diagnostics such as X-rays, blood and other tests.

Your treatment may involve medical counseling, medications, casts, splints and therapies such as exercise or surgery. For most orthopedic diseases and injuries there is more than one form of treatment. Your orthopedist will discuss the treatment options with you and help you select the best plan to enable you to live an active and functional life.
