Are Orthopedic Telehealth Appointments Right For Me?

Orthopedic telehealth allows patients who have difficulty complying with treatment schedules the freedom to be seen by their provider at a time that works best for them. Orthopedic telehealth appointments may benefit the following patients:

  • Patients with chronic joint aches and muscle pain.
  • Individuals needing follow-up appointments after surgery or treatment.
  • Those with acute injuries who require immediate attention.
  • Patients requiring frequent physical therapy sessions.
  • Anyone who cannot easily access one of our physical locations due to distance or mobility issues.

Telehealth visits may not be the best option if you have limited access to technology, have unreliable hardware, or are unfamiliar with troubleshooting your devices.

This was the second knee replacement that Dr Christensen has done. Both are so much better than before. Dr. Christensen is great at putting worries at ease before surgery.

I prefer him cause he has a sense of humor and is very straight forward. Also the fact that he tries to avoid surgeries if possible, which is a relief if therapy can fix the issue and get me back to work.

Also...the staff in his office are timely which is extremely important for those of us that have to work and very polite.
