TIPS FOR CHOOSING A DOCTOR

Hyaluronic Acid Injections, such as ORTHOVISC®, have helped millions of people get back to the activities they enjoy but had to modify or stop entirely due to their knee pain. But are hyaluronic acid injections right for you? That is a question you and your doctor have to answer together.

The relationship between you and your doctor is a key factor in success. So, choosing a doctor you are comfortable with and trust is very important. In choosing a doctor, keep these items in mind:

1. Choose a doctor who inspires your confidence. A good doctor will have both good clinical as well as human credentials, which is showing concern for your pain, taking time to hear your concerns and answering your questions fully.
2. Make sure your doctor fully understands how your knee pain is impacting your life and your goals for treatment.
3. Be prepared to follow the treatment plan your doctor will develop for you. You need to follow it diligently to see the best results.
