That’s where we can help. At your first appointment at Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, you’ll be paired with one of our spine specialists. They will discuss your medical history with you and perform a physical examination on your back. Following this examination, diagnostic tests (such as X-rays or MRI scans) may be performed to visually assess your spine and any damage or issues that are affecting it. Following these tests, a formal diagnosis will be provided and a personalized treatment plan will be composed.
