Trauma & Fractures
What Do I Do If I Have Trauma or Fractures?
A broken bone requires prompt care. No matter how it happened, one fact is certain: you definitely weren’t planning for it. Most broken bones happen because of an accident, trauma, sports injury or fall, and when you’re in pain we are ready to evaluate your injury and treat it promptly. In our Urgent ORTHO Care clinic, we can see you the same day and begin the process of treating your injury.
The type of treatment you will receive at South Florida Orthopaedics will be based entirely on your individual assessment. Our orthopaedic surgeons are experts at evaluating your injury and creating a plan that’s right for you. Whether it’s a simple break or a complex fracture that requires reduction, many types of fractures or breaks may be stabilized for healing with a cast, which can be done in our office.
What Are Fracture Care and Treatment Options?
Upon evaluation, other fractures may require surgical repair for proper healing.
We are also able to expedite your diagnostic assessment because we offer X-Ray and MRI services on-site which saves you time and travel.
When you or a loved one is in need of prompt care for a suspected or confirmed bone fracture, starting with an orthopaedic surgeon helps ensure the most appropriate care. Our Urgent ORTHO Care provides same-day services, located on the fourth floor of Monterey Medical Center.
