"While his Physician's Assistant was very thorough, Dr. Moatz and the receptionists were really not interested in helping me. I was told that in order to be treated, I would need an MRI for him to review. I can't treat you without one. Fair enough. How do I go about that? Go to the nearest ER and tell them you need an MRI and bring us a copy. Called back to clarify later, because it just did not make sense, and was told "we aren't able to give you a referral, but if your back problem is really that bad, you should be able to get one at the ER. They'll decide if you need one and if you can get one, then you can come back to be treated." The expectation was that I go wait in the ER (in the middle of a pandemic) and cross my fingers that they think my condition warranted an MRI. The entire reason I went to a specialist was to get a specialist's opinion on my injury. Instead I'm expected to just drop by the ER like a Drive-Thru and order an MRI to go? Needless to say, I'll be seeking treatment elsewhere."

What is Orthopedic Surgery?

Orthopedic surgeons, sometimes just called orthopedists, are surgical doctors of the musculoskeletal system. They work to keep your body active and in motion by treating problems with your bones, joints, tendons and muscles. The most frequently treated disorder seen by orthopedic surgeons is osteoarthritis, a common 'wear-and-tear' problem where the cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down, causing friction and pain. Orthopedic surgeons might also see patients for bone and joint deformities, amputation, infections of the bone and joint, overuse injuries, or nerve compression.

Orthopedic surgeons can order tests such as blood work and x-rays to get a clearer picture of the issue. Depending on the illness or injury, more than one different form of treatment may be used. Treatment may include:

Surgery, such as fusing bones together to increase stability, or replacing a joint
Medication, such as pain medication or steroids to promote healing
Casts, splints, or orthotics (devices such as braces or shoe inserts to support the body)
Physical therapy, a kind of treatment using exercise, stretching, heat, and massage to heal the body
Exercise, stretching, movement, and use of the affected part

Orthopedic surgeons also work to prevent injuries and slow the progression of disease in their patients. They educate patients on ways to prevent future injuries, and they treat illness in order to prevent further damage to bones or joints that may be affected by disease. The goal of an orthopedic surgeon is to help their patients restore movement and regain an active life.
