Initial Consultation
During your first consultation with your orthopaedic surgeon you will be asked a series of questions about your condition, general health and activity levels. Your surgeon will perform a physical examination so you must dress in clothes that will allow easy access to the problematic areas. If you are attending for your hip or knee you should bring shorts.
Can I cancel or reschedule my appointment?
To cancel or reschedule please call the clinic at least 48 hours ahead so your appointment can be given to another patient.
