We gave our office (~ 100 employees) a paid half day off to vote today. We don’t care who they voted for, as long as they participated in the democratic process. #getoutandvote #election2020
Please stay safe this holiday and be sure to #AvoidThe3Cs
Published results showed ankle fractures surgically treated by orthopedic surgeons had lower rates of malunion and nonunion than when treated by podiatrists. https://www.healio.com//fewer-malunions-nonunions-found-af
If you or your loved one sustains an injury, skip the urgent care and emergency department Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center and walk into the OSS clinic for immediate care by a qualified ortho specialist. If you have an emergency or injury after hours, be sure to ask the ED provider for the OSS team of specialists. We are also available by phone 24/7 for medical advice.
OSS stands in solidarity with all who are working to fight racism and social inequity in our country and around the world. #BlackLivesMatter #EquityAndJusticeForAll
Advisory for Musculoskeletal Patients During COVID-19 We know that surgery for many of our patients have been postponed due to the Coronavirus pandemic. It will likely be some time, before elective surgeries will resume at a rate that will allow orthopaedic surgeons to be able to schedule all of their patients for medically needed elective surgeries. Some communities may be able to resume these surgeries more quickly than other areas in the State. While there are numerous gui...delines about how the surgeon, the surgery centers and hospitals are to prepare for safe surgeries, the decision for a patient about when your surgery becomes more urgent is not as clear. During this time, it is important for patients to recognize Red Flags that may make their elective surgery more urgent. Notify your orthopaedic surgeon if you: 1. Experience more joint pain pain that is affecting your daily activities 2. Require additional medications that may become addictive to control your pain 3. Are having mobility limitations that in of themselves increase your health risks 4. Are suffering instability issues tendency to fall or lose your balance 5. Are experiencing any change to your overall health 6. Are becoming depressed as you lose your ability to live more independently All of these Red Flags could potentially make your elective surgery, more urgent. In addition, we know that if you contract COVID-19 or have other co-morbidities, you could be at an increased risk for complications. All of these factors need to be considered when deciding whether you can move forward with your surgery. We encourage patients to stay in touch with your orthopaedic surgeon to update he/her on your medical condition, so you can make an informed decision together.
If you injure yourself, please don’t go to the E.R. or Urgent Care clinic during the COVID-19 pandemic. OSS is currently seeing patients in the office on a walk-in basis. We also offer virtual Telehealth appointments where you can obtain a consult with one of our Orthopaedic specialists from the safety and comfort of your home. #healthcare #telehealth #telemedicine #LosAngeles #covid19 #coronavirus

If you have had symptoms of COUGH, FEVER, MALAISE, BODY ACHES, OR RUNNY NOSE YOU MUST RESCHEDULE APPOINTMENT. We also recommend that you call your primary care doctor for further guidance.
