Keeping You Safe

We are all impacted by the effects of COVID-19. We want you to know we’re still here to help. Whether you are suffering from a sports injury, hip pain, back pain or any musculoskeletal condition, we’re here when you need us.

We’re Minimizing Risk With Changes

To protect the health of our patients, providers and staff, we made some changes:

  • Virtual visits: You can now be seen by an orthopedic specialist from the comfort of home. These virtual visits can be conducted through your phone or computer. Our patient care team will walk you through the process when you schedule your appointment. Learn more about virtual visits.
  •  Visitor policy: Adult patients may have two additional people accompany them to an office visit; pediatric patients may have two additional people/caregivers accompany them to an office visit.
  • Arrival: Upon arrival to our office, we may ask you about symptoms and COVID exposure.
  • Sanitization: Our offices, exam rooms and waiting rooms are regularly cleaned and sanitized.

Orthopedic Injury Clinic

The Orthopedic Injury Clinic remains open to treat patients with urgent* orthopedic needs. If you have a non-urgent orthopedic need, please call 314-514-3500 to schedule a routine visit. 

Call 314-514-1642 to schedule your same-day injury clinic visit, or click here to make your appointment online.

Please DO NOT come to the Injury Clinic if:

  1. You are experiencing cold- or flu-like symptoms such as congestion, fever, cough or shortness of breath. 
  2. You have been diagnosed or exposed to someone with COVID-19 (coronavirus).

If you have an urgent orthopedic injury and any of these situations apply to you, please visit an emergency department. If you questions about whether you are able to be seen at the injury clinic, please call 314-514-1642. 

*What is an URGENT condition?
An urgent condition means if evaluation and treatment is delayed, the condition may become worse. Chronic conditions, including chronic pain, are often non-urgent. If there is a question about the urgency of your condition, you may be offered an initial virtual visit.
