  • Evaluation of the injury and how it happened
  • A recovery plan discussed with your provider

  • Check-in and brief history of the injury
  • Examination with a provider
  • Discussion of findings and next steps
  • A follow-up plan, if one is needed

Appointment length varies depending on the injury, and your provider will explain timing as the visit moves along. Bring a list of any questions, along with information about how and when the injury occurred.

Every visit ends with a clear next step, whether that’s a follow-up appointment, guidance on activity, or referral for further evaluation. Nothing is left vague.
