Preparing for your Visit.

At the Grabow Hand to Shoulder Center, it is our goal to provide comprehensive and timely consultations, so that you may begin to both understand the nature of your condition and address your symptoms with an appropriate treatment plan.

Upon arrival, please register at the front desk. Personal and insurance information will be verified. Here you will also be asked to fill out forms so that we have a full and complete understanding of both your current overall health status and the specifics of your presenting problem.  If you had filled out the forms prior to your arrival, this will be verified.

 

After your examination and consultation, you will receive an explanation of what is thought to be your current problem, and treatment options on how to proceed to address your diagnosis. This may include further diagnostic studies, physical therapy, diagnostic and/or therapeutic injections, consultations with other specialists, or a discussion of surgical treatment options.

What to bring to your appointment:

  • All radiology studies pertaining to your current medical problem. They should be recent and include either x-rays, MRI or a CT scan.

  • Prior medical records when possible, such as operative reports, EMG and nerve conduction results. Also include consultations from other physicians, particularly those from your referring physician.

  • A complete list of all medications you are currently taking.

  • Your insurance card, co-payment, and billing form. You may want to check with our office staff if you have any questions regarding coverage by your insurance plan.
