What to expect as an orthopedic patient

Your musculoskeletal system is made up of your bones, ligaments, joints, tendons, and soft tissue. It supports your entire body. If your quality of life is impacted by pain, loss of mobility or poor function, consider seeing an orthopedic specialist.

Here is what patients might expect from a visit to our orthopedic specialists:

  1. A comprehensive exam will include detailed medical history, physical examination, current overall health and pain level. Your care provider will focus on your range of motion, strength, mobility and how your condition affects your daily life.
  2. Imaging tests will help your orthopedic provider make a correct diagnosis and discover the cause of your condition. These include X-rays, MRI or CT scans. Each scan gives a slightly different picture of your body, so more than one type may be necessary.
  3. Diagnosis is determined after testing and exams. We will explain your condition, its causes and possible treatments. 
  4. A customized treatment plan is developed for you, tailored to your specific condition and mobility goals. Your tailored plan may include medication, physical therapy, a medical device such as a brace, or steroid injections. 

If these treatments aren’t effective, or your condition worsens, your care team may talk to you about orthopedic surgery. 

5. Follow-up appointments are crucial to positive long-term outcomes. These appointments help us monitor your progress. We will adjust your treatment plan if needed, answer any questions and discuss any other concerns you may have.
