Frequently Asked Questions

What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring a valid photo ID, your insurance card, a list of current medications, any relevant imaging (X-rays, MRIs) on disc or via patient portal, and a completed new patient intake form (available on our website). Arrive 15 minutes early to complete any remaining paperwork.
Do you accept my insurance?
We accept most major insurance plans, including Tricare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Medicare, Humana, and Kaiser Permanente. If you don't see your plan listed, please contact our office to verify coverage before your visit.
How long will my recovery take?
Recovery time varies depending on your condition and treatment. Minor sprains or strains may heal in a few weeks, while fractures typically take 6 to 12 weeks. Surgical procedures may require several months of rehabilitation. During your consultation, we will provide a personalized recovery timeline.
Do I need a referral to see you?
In most cases, a referral is not required. However, some insurance plans, particularly HMOs and Tricare Prime, may require a referral from your primary care physician. We recommend checking with your insurance provider before scheduling.
What is your approach to treatment?
We follow a conservative-first philosophy, meaning we always explore non-surgical treatment options such as physical therapy, medication, injections, and bracing before recommending surgery. If surgery is necessary, our trauma-trained surgeons use the latest minimally invasive techniques to minimize recovery time.
