Because orthopaedic injuries are often acute, prompt evaluation and treatment are often sought through the emergency room. Our emergency room physicians are experienced and well-trained to evaluate and triage your injury so that you receive timely and expert care.

In a non-emergency situation, evaluation and treatment are best provided in the privacy and comfort of your orthopaedist’s office. We can help you identify expert orthopaedists by calling the Joseph and Alma Gildenhorn Institute for Bone and Joint Health at Sibley Memorial Hospital at 202-660-MOVE (6683).
