Evaluation and treatment
Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Care Planned Around the Cause
Aura Orthopedic & Sports Medicine in Woodland Park starts with a conversation and an exam, not a guess. Your history, your movement and the painful area are looked at together before any treatment is suggested.
Surgical and Non-Surgical Care
Most orthopedic problems do not end in an operation. Your plan may start with pain management, activity changes, and physical or occupational therapy. If your exam and imaging show that surgery, including foot and ankle surgery, would help, you will hear what it involves and what recovery looks like before you decide.
When imaging is needed, we explain what it showed in plain language, and we can review MRI or X-ray records you bring. See our diagnostics and imaging services.
What Happens at Your First Appointment
Four steps take you from first question to a written plan. The full Aura patient journey shows how care continues after that.
Consultation
You tell us where it hurts, what you were doing when it started and what you want to get back to.
Physical exam
Joint motion, strength, stability and the way you stand and walk are checked.
Imaging when needed
X-ray or MRI is added only when the result will change the plan.
Personalized plan
You leave with a plan for treatment, rehabilitation, return to activity and follow-up.

Bakr Asif, DPM, sees orthopedic and sports medicine patients at Aura Total Health in Woodland Park. He is a podiatrist with surgical residency training in foot, ankle and lower-extremity care and a Diplomate of the American Board of Podiatric Medicine.
Book a visit if joint pain lasts more than a few weeks, an injury stays swollen, or pain gets in the way of work, exercise or sleep. Athletes and active adults with sprains, pulled tendons or overuse injuries are common patients. If you cannot put weight on a limb or see an obvious deformity, go to urgent care first.
Bring any recent MRI or X-ray records, a list of your current medications, and notes on when the pain started and what makes it better or worse. These details help the exam focus on the right area.
Many orthopedic problems improve without surgery. Dr. Asif is a podiatrist (DPM) with surgical training in foot, ankle and lower-extremity care, and your exam and imaging decide whether surgery is worth discussing. See our diagnostics and imaging services.
