Phoenix, AZ, United States, September 24, 2013 -- Parents who have had a child fall at the playground know that waiting several days to get an appointment with an orthopedic specialist can be agonizing. While they wait, parents are faced with the difficult tack of keeping the injured limb still and the child busy with activities that require little to no activity - no small task.

But in Phoenix, waiting to see an orthopedic specialist is a thing of the past, thanks to to same-day appointments offered by OrthoArizona - Arizona Orthopaedic Associates.

"It’s hard as a parent to see our children in pain," said Dr. David Ott, an orthopedic surgeon at OrthoArizona - Arizona Orthopaedic Associates. "Keeping a child’s injured limb immobile for a few days can be a challenge. Catering to this need was the beginning of our same-day appointments for acutely-injured children. The program was successful, so we extended it to include adults."

Keeping an injured bone or joint still can be just as challenging for adults who have experienced a fall or accident. That’s why same-day appointments at AOA are available to patients of all ages.

And at OrthoArizona - Arizona Orthopaedic Associates patients are always seen and treated by of the practice’s nine surgeons. OrthoArizona - Arizona Orthopaedic Associates doctors are consistently voted the best doctors in Phoenix and have appeared in Phoenix Magazine’s annual “Top Doctors” issues for the past 14 years. Additionally, AOA surgeons have been included in Best Doctors™ since its inception.

"New patients are all examined and treated by one of our board-certified doctors," Dr. Ott said. "After this process is completed, the doctor will discuss a course of action with the patient and their parents or guardians. This includes a treatment plan or any after-care that may be necessary."

The process is made easier at OrthoArizona - Arizona Orthopaedic Associates because digital X-ray and MRI equipment is available on location, cutting down wait times and trips to other specialists.

"X-rays are on on-site and reviewed while the patient is here," Dr. Ott said. "They don’t have to experience long wait-times or the hassle of going to another facility."

The process puts parents at ease, getting their children in quickly to see a doctor and allowing treatment to begin as soon as possible, instead of waiting several days after the initial accident occurs.

"We know that patients have many options to choose for treatment," Dr. Ott said. "We strive to offer the speediest, highest quality care at Arizona Orthopaedic Associates. Our same-day treatment is just one of the ways we standout and our patients appreciate that."
