We Aim for Fast Recoveries With Our Orthopaedic Services
Our highly-trained casting techs work with the latest brace options to get patients out of their casts earlier. The braces we use allow patients to begin motion and rehabilitation faster. We make every effort to prevent patients from being immobilized in casts for long periods of time after an injury.
Rehabilitation
Your recovery doesn't begin or end with immobilization or surgery. Your doctor may prescribe physical therapy before and/or after surgery, or as an integral part of your non-operative treatment plan. We use the latest techniques in physical therapy to get patients back to their daily lives safely and quickly. That's where our physicians join forces with our expert in-house physical therapy team.
Our physical therapists work at CompRehab Plaza, one of the most sophisticated outpatient rehabilitation centers in the region.
