- 6SurgerySpine and orthopedic surgery when it's the better option
- Evaluation
A physician or advanced practice clinician examines you, reviews imaging and history, and finds the likely source.
- Conservative care first
Most people start with physical therapy, activity changes and medicine guidance. Many need nothing more.
- Specialist options
If pain persists, injections, nerve treatments, regenerative care or a surgical opinion are discussed, never assumed.
- Follow-up and coordination
One team across specialties, so imaging, therapy and follow-ups stay connected.
Every plan is individual. Not every patient needs injections or surgery, and your clinician explains the options and alternatives before any procedure.

Answers that save you time
“I have been having pain in my back for months with no answers. Instead of going back and forth with my PCP about testing, I called Specialty MC and had an appointment the next day. Everyone was so nice and really listened to my issues. Finally getting some testing and a therapy plan. A huge thank you to all the staff.”
