Appointments

All appointments can be arranged by calling 256-332-6215 or Click here to request an appointment online.

Our office hours are 8am to 5 pm and we are conveniently next to Russellville Hospital.

Please arrive 5-10 minutes early for your appointment for registration and to fill in a health questionnaire.  You can also print out and complete our registration and health questionnaires in advance of your appointment.  All forms are available under Patient Forms.

When you come for your appointments, please remember to bring the following

• Insurance information
• Copies of operation records, medical records, x-rays, MRIs, CT scans and so on from prior doctor visits.
• If you have had surgery elsewhere, please bring a copy of your operation report.

Very often during the course of your evaluation or treatment for an orthopaedic condition we will require x-rays to determine the cause of a problem or to evaluate your progress. If not all the relevant information is available at the time of your appointment this may cause a delay in your treatment.

Appointments for X-ray are not necessary.

These are continually staffed whenever any doctor is consulting, which covers most of the week.

Patients may be referred for x-rays from outside. X-rays can therefore be arranged prior to consultations.

Please dress so that the body part you are having trouble with can be easily examined and/or X-rayed. For example, please wear shorts if you are attending for a knee problem.

To cancel an appointment:

Telephone the office during business hours. Please cancel at least 1 day ahead so that your appointment time can be allocated to another patient who is seeking treatment.

Your time is valuable and we make every effort to run on time. As you can imagine, emergencies occur that cause scheduling delays beyond our control. We apologize in advance if we keep you waiting.
