Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center offers fracture and trauma evaluation and treatment planning for active adults and athletes, welcoming patients from Jackson, MS and the surrounding community of more than 153,000 residents.
What Is Fracture & Trauma Care?
Fracture & Trauma Care is a service offered by Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center to evaluate and plan treatment for broken bones and related injuries in active adults and athletes.
This service is meant for people who have already been seen for an urgent injury, or who have a bone or joint concern their primary provider feels should be reviewed by an orthopaedic team, and who want a clear plan for what happens next.
This is not emergency care. If you are dealing with a serious or life-threatening injury, please go to the nearest emergency room or call 911.
For everything else, a visit gives you the chance to talk through the injury, understand your options, and leave with a plan that fits your daily life, whether that means sports, work, or family responsibilities.
Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center is located approximately 1.1 miles from Jackson, MS, making it a convenient option for families and active adults nearby who want orthopaedic input close to home.
What to Expect at Your Visit
Your first visit starts with a conversation. A member of our team will ask how the injury happened, what you have noticed since, and any care you have already received.
From there, our providers perform a hands-on evaluation and, when appropriate, review or order imaging to get a clearer picture of the bone or joint involved.
We will walk through what we see in plain language, answer your questions, and talk about the general options available for the injury you are dealing with.
- A review of your injury history and any prior imaging or records
- A physical evaluation focused on the affected area
- A conversation about next steps, follow-up, and what to watch for
- Time to ask questions before you leave
Specific decisions about your care are made between you and your provider during the visit, based on your individual situation. This page is here to help you know what to expect when you arrive, not to replace that conversation.
The Scope of Our Fracture & Trauma Care
Fracture & Trauma Care at Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center covers evaluation and treatment planning for a range of broken bone and injury concerns affecting active adults and athletes.
- Evaluation of new or recent fractures
- Review of injuries that have not healed as expected
- Treatment planning discussions with an orthopaedic provider
- Follow-up visits to track healing and progress
- Coordination with your primary care provider or referring clinician when needed
Because our practice serves active adults and athletes of all ages, our providers are used to talking through how an injury may affect training, work, or daily routines, and building a plan around that context.
Every visit is specific to the person in the chair. What is right for one injury or one patient will not always be right for another, which is why the visit itself, not a website, is where a plan gets built.
