Does an Orthopedic Specialist Treat Foot and Ankle Issues?

Diagnosis utilizes imaging tests, and treatment varies based on condition severity. Orthopedic surgery, if needed, is also performed by an orthopedic specialist.
Do I need a doctor referral to see an Orthopedist?
You can schedule a direct appointment with an orthopedist at their clinic or a healthcare center. However, a general physician referral might be necessary following an initial consultation, particularly for musculoskeletal system issues requiring further specialized examination.
