We explore all options for your treatment,taking an evidenced-based approach – which means that we provide treatment plans that have research to back them.
We also look at the big picture, and treat the whole patient, not just the orthopedic injury. We educate our patients about their particular condition, and what the options are, both non-surgical and surgical. Patients are encouraged to ask questions, so that we know that they fully understand what we have discussed with them before they leave our office.
For non-surgical options, we offer patients the following:
- Injections
- Physical therapy regimens
- Bracing, splinting or casting
- Medication regimens
- Activity modifications
- Lifestyle change recommendations
- Other modalities
