Your visit will start with one of our experienced nurses who will take your medical history and vital signs. One of our surgeons will then conduct a personal interview and history. This will be followed by a physical examination and review of previous tests, imaging, and treatments. Diagnostic imaging is often required to diagnose your problem. Orthopedics of Southern Indiana has X-ray and MRI available on-site.
