Continuity of Care
The office for Orthopedic care is located in close proximity to the Emergency Department. Patients can receive their x-rays or scans, and meet with an orthopedic specialist to determine the best course of action for treatment. Our staff can schedule therapy and home health care based upon your specific needs.
