Diagnosing your orthopedic condition

Whether a patient needs care for a broken bone or chronic condition or wants a second opinion, our orthopedic specialists have the expertise and technology to get them back to doing the things they love. The first step in orthopedic treatment is assessing and diagnosing a patient's condition. We offer a range of diagnostic options and imaging services, such as computerized tomography (CT) scans, X-rays and arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgical procedure using a small camera to examine a joint).
