PATIENT'S

JOURNEY

A patient's journey begins when the patient visits the family doctor. In some cases, the patient will be referred to a Muskuloskeletal clinic first, for a trial of non surgical treatment.  If the symptoms continue they will come to my clinic to determine if surgery is the right answer for them. 

​

The process of preparing for consultation with a specialist, getting treatment and healing from an injury can be a long process.  

It is important for patients to be informed and understand their journey. 

​

In some cases, the process is short but others can take years before patients can reach full recovery.   In this section, you will find information and links that will help you keep informed and maximize your time in order to achieve a successful recovery.
