Most initial consultations take between 1 hour and 90 minutes. When appropriate, we also offer an ultrasound evaluation of the problematic area, as well as a MRI interpretation in conjunction with the radiologist interpretation. If you have had a MRI prior to seeing us, we will make sure the proper sequences and views have been obtained. If not, we will discuss further steps with you to obtain these. Our doctors have advanced training in Orthopedic MRI and work intimately with high-quality local MRI facilities.
Based on this evaluation, the doctor will provide his recommendation, which could include any of the following or a combination thereof:
- Additional imaging
- Diagnostic injection(s)
- Purpose driven, individualized physical therapy (we work closely with several physical therapy groups to produce optimal results).
- BIOLOGIX based procedure(s), frequently in conjunction with other synergistic modalities.
We also always look forward to working closely with your other doctors or therapists to provide additional information, treatments options, and and maintain a close dialogue with them whenever possible.
The evidence is incredibly strong and continues to be documented in numerous publications. There are dozens of scientific studies (clinical and laboratory-based) that support both the effectiveness and safety of these treatments.
