Are Orthopedic Telehealth Appointments Right For Me?

Orthopedic telehealth allows patients who have difficulty complying with treatment schedules the freedom to be seen by their provider at a time that works best for them. Orthopedic telehealth appointments may benefit the following patients:

  • Patients with chronic joint aches and muscle pain.
  • Individuals needing follow-up appointments after surgery or treatment.
  • Those with acute injuries who require immediate attention.
  • Patients requiring frequent physical therapy sessions.
  • Anyone who cannot easily access one of our physical locations due to distance or mobility issues.

Telehealth visits may not be the best option if you have limited access to technology, have unreliable hardware, or are unfamiliar with troubleshooting your devices.

Dr Huff did a total knee replacement for me in January 2018. He and all of his staff both at the hospital and during follow up visits were extremely efficient, polite, and accommodating to any concern I expressed.
