Qué debe saber antes de reservar Ortopedia

Orthopedic clinicians evaluate conditions involving the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Practices can have different areas of focus, such as spine, shoulder, hand or knee care. An orthopedic consultation does not automatically mean surgery; ask which clinician and type of evaluation the practice is offering.

Prepárese para la primera cita

Describe the body area involved when requesting an appointment and ask whether the available clinician evaluates that concern. Confirm how the practice wants prior imaging, reports and referral information delivered. If a procedure is later proposed, ask where it would take place and which office can explain the separate scheduling and billing arrangements.
