Premier Orthopaedics Now Offering Telemedicine Visits

As the coronavirus crisis continues to evolve, “social distancing” remains one of the most effective ways to prevent the disease’s spread.
In response, Premier Orthopaedics is now leveraging an investment in technology to offer patients access to our musculoskeletal experts from the comfort of their homes. Patients can schedule a telemedicine appointment to see one of our physicians on a mobile phone, tablet or home computer. This “video visit” service offers a safe, effective, valuable way to maintain care for patients who are immunocompromised or otherwise unable to visit the office. To schedule a telemedicine appointment please fill out an online appointment form or call 1-855-ORTHO24 (1-855-678-4624).
It remains our privilege to be your orthopaedic provider of choice. Should you decide to visit us in person, please know that our offices continue to follow a rigorous infection prevention protocol that includes screening our patients and staff for illness, maintaining social distancing, and aggressively disinfecting our offices and clinics.
Please visit this page for updates and more information on Premier Orthopaedics’ ongoing response to the coronavirus pandemic.
From all of us at Premier – Thank you and stay safe!
