An ortho guy, for example, treats someone for a sports injury and then doesn't see that patient again for years, if ever. He will take new patients because most of his business is one-off so there is a lot of turnover. That's not what it's like around here...... If you break or sprain something there is no way you can simply call an ortho and get an appt..... First question to you is.....are you a patient...if not, next available appt is 1-2 months..so we trot off to and ER or clinic. We can get much quicker service going into NYC....
