Non-surgical orthopaedic sports medicine

I want my patients to be well informed so that they can be at choice in their health decisions. Once a diagnostic opinion is reached I spend time educating patients about their condition and provide options for care from in-office physical medicine/rehabilitation to collaboration with outside physicians for pain management (oral medications and injectable medications) or surgery. In some cases laboratory testing and x-ray or advanced imaging (MRI, CT, bone scan) are necessary but are not the mainstay in diagnosis and not required in many cases.
