Orthopedic Center Austin

Initial Consultation: Our orthopedic specialists firmly believe that the first appointment is critical in determining your ideal course of treatment. During the initial consultation, patients will meet with one of our physicians in person.

Referral Policy

A referral is essential for claim processing and eliminates the chance that patients will receive a bill. If your insurance plan requires a referral, it is your responsibility to call your primary care physician prior to your visit, in order to make sure that you have a referral on file (either paper or electronically).

Prescription Refills

Our orthopedic specialists carefully review each request. Refill requests require 48 hours to complete, and are processed Monday through Friday (no weekends). Please note that narcotic pain medications will not be prescribed over the phone, as stated in our policy on narcotic pain medicine.

Disability and Other Forms

Disability and other forms require one week for processing and a $25 fee for completion. If you have not had an office visit within the past 60 days, you must make an appointment to review the status of your disability or to discuss the nature of the form that you require.

X-Ray Films

Copies of x-rays taken in this office are available with the proper permission. Please provide us with a completed designated release form.
