Evaluation and treatment
Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Care That Starts With a Diagnosis
Treatment works best when it matches the cause. At your first appointment in Jersey City, your joints, movement, strength and injury history are reviewed together.
Non-Surgical and Surgical Options
Many orthopedic problems improve without surgery. Your plan may include pain management, physical or occupational therapy, and a rehabilitation schedule that guides your return to activity. Surgery, including foot and ankle surgery, is discussed only when your exam and imaging point to it.
Imaging such as X-ray or MRI is added when it is clinically needed, and we can review recent scans you bring from another office. See our diagnostics and imaging services.
Your First Appointment
From first question to a clear plan in four steps. You can also read the full Aura patient journey.
Consultation
We start with your symptoms, medical history, activity limits and goals.
Physical exam
The painful area, your range of motion, strength and stability are checked together.
Diagnostics
X-ray, MRI or other imaging is added when it will change the plan.
Personalized plan
Your treatment, rehabilitation, return to activity and follow-up are laid out in writing.
