Call For Appointment
Initial evaluation
Start your journey by meeting with an orthopedic specialist for an evaluation and diagnosis. Your doctor will:
- Ask about your symptoms and goals for recovery.
- Check your joint’s range of motion.
- Review results of any imaging tests you’ve had.
- Order diagnostic tests, if needed.
- Review possible treatment options.
Ask your insurance provider if you need a referral from your primary care doctor before this appointment. Your plan may require a referral to cover the cost of your care.
Nonsurgical treatment
Whenever possible, your treatment begins with conservative options that fit more easily into your daily routine and require less recovery time than surgery.
Rehabilitation
Regain your abilities and relieve pain with rehabilitation. You’ll work one-on-one with a therapist who designs a custom treatment plan to help you achieve your goals. You may benefit from physical therapy, occupational and hand therapy, balance therapy, or other specialized treatment.
We’ll provide the right level of support for your situation:
- Outpatient rehabilitation — you visit us for appointments and return home afterward.
- Inpatient rehabilitation — you stay at our dedicated Inpatient Rehabilitation Center for intensive therapy and round-the-clock care.
Injections
Injections deliver medicine directly to the source of your pain or other symptoms. Depending on your condition, your treatment may work by:
- Numbing nerves that transmit pain signals.
- Reducing inflammation.
- Lubricating a joint.
- Breaking up stiff tissue.
- Using platelets from your body to stimulate healing.
To make sure treatment precisely targets the right place, Asante providers use advanced imaging guidance. That means your injection will be as effective as possible.
Orthopedic surgery
Count on Asante to help make orthopedic surgery go smoothly. We take the least invasive approach, often using only small incisions so you recover faster. You’ll get excellent care from each of our orthopedic surgeons, including those with specialized, fellowship training in joint reconstruction (repair). Ask us about new and advanced options, such as cartilage restoration and outpatient joint replacement.
