Your clinic visit
Since x-rays or cast work is often required, please bring shorts if you have a knee, hip or foot problem and wear a tank top (for women) if you have a shoulder problem. If you are being seen for a foot or ankle problem, bring your shoe inserts or custom foot inserts. If you are a runner, bring your running shoes.
Your first appointment will begin by taking a detailed medical history and conducting a physical examination. This gives your doctor an idea about the type of symptoms or pain you are experiencing, past medical and surgical history, and medications that you are taking. We may ask you to schedule an MRI or to bring your X-rays with you.
