Have You Been Diagnosed with A Spine Condition or Joint Condition?
Have you been diagnosed with a spinal condition or joint condition? Injuries or diseases to spine and extremities can seriously impact your health and quality of life. If you were diagnosed with degenerative disc disease, a bulging or herniated disc, migraines, pain or injury to an extremity stenosis, and told that surgical intervention is the best treatment, you may want to consider getting a conservative second opinion.
Second Opinion Prior to Surgery
A second opinion can provide valuable insight and more confidence in the diagnosis and course of treatment you ultimately decide on. You should not feel any hesitation or anxiety about wanting clarification from another medical expert. Any surgery is a significant undertaking. Once you get “cut on” you can never go back.
It’s permanent.
If you are uncertain about your diagnosis, surgeon or treatment modalities, a second opinion will allow you to make the most informed decision regarding your care.
Dr. Molitor and his team are frequently sought after for second opinions on conditions that may require surgery. Whether referred by family practice doctors, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, or a patient’s friends or family—or if you are personally seeking an independent second opinion—he takes a thorough and comprehensive approach to diagnosing conditions and recommending the most effective treatment options.
Undergoing surgery—even when minimally invasive—can be daunting. Before making such a critical decision, wouldn’t you want to ensure that all conservative treatment options have been explored and that you’re choosing the best course of action for your health?
Has your doctor recommended non-surgical therapies to address your condition or moved straight to the operating room? Because many conservative non-surgical treatments can improve flexibility, reduce pain, and help the body heal naturally over time.
Moreover, there are few instances where patients need to rush into invasive procedures or surgeries. Instead, give yourself the time to get a second set of eyes on your health from a top specialist in conservative care. If two medical professionals recommend the same treatment or surgical procedure, you will feel more confident you’re taking the right path forward.
Dr. Molitor and his team focus on providing conservative and effective spine and joint care to patients throughout the greater Dallas-Fort Worth area.
