October 2008 Summit Orthopedics’ New Web Site Summit Orthopedics’ new Web site features a variety of information on its doctors, areas of expertise, and services provided. Plus, it has a new look and is designed to allow visitors quick and convenient access to information. Study: Patients Should Ask More Questions Communication is vital to ensure optimal care, but one recent national study shows there is a disconnect between patients 60 and older and orthopedic doctors. About Foot & Ankle Specialists Wondering who to see with a foot or ankle injury or disorder? You have a choice of specialists: a podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon who is fellowship-trained in ankle and foot treatment. While they offer many of the same services, they also differ in some areas. Stopping Smoking Reduces Complications The risks of smoking are well known: cancer, and heart and lung disease. Now, a new study shows that a person who stops smoking before surgery faces less risk of postoperative complications. Coping with Chronic Pain Numerous bone and joints injuries can leave us with chronic pain. Treating this pain can be challenging because the precise source of the pain can be hard to determine and sometimes it can take several types of treatment options before the pain subsides. |
