What is orthopedic walk-in care?
Orthopedics and Sports Medicine walk-in care is a faster, more cost-effective alternative, compared to the emergency room. This level of care is a great option for patients with orthopedic injuries or conditions that require immediate medical treatment but are not life-threatening.
Injuries and conditions treated
- Broken collarbone, acromioclavicular (AC) joint sprain or separated shoulder
- Hamstring injury
- Injuries that result in pain when moving or are painful to the touch
- Lower body injury with inability to bear weight on it
- Muscle and tendon strains and ligament/joint sprains
- Simple bone fractures
- Torn biceps, triceps or quadricep tendon
- Wrist and forearm injury
When to visit the emergency room
Seek immediate emergency room service for severe injuries, including:
- An open wound over the fracture
- Bone that is visible (compound fracture)
- Burns to the skin
- Serious cuts and deep abrasions
