We are open and treating patients who have urgent needs. Patients & employees are being screened & only accepting one visitor at this time. We strongly encourage patients to schedule visits or e-visits if they have an acute, urgent orthopaedic injury or condition. By remaining open, we are hoping to do our part to offload overwhelmed ERs to help protect and provide ortho care for those in need during this trying health care situation. To speak with us, or learn about our telemedicine options, please call (859) 263-5140.
