Get the Orthopedic Care You Need — Without the Wait

Whether you're an active athlete, a busy parent or simply someone going about your daily routine, a sudden injury or nagging chronic extremity pain can bring your life to a grinding halt. Joint pain, severe sprains and suspected fractures don't wait for a convenient time — and neither should you. Our trained providers practice under the guidance of of Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Matthew Tomaino, MD, MBA, FAAOS. They will oversee your care until you are feeling better—from start to finish.

What Is Orthopedic Injury Care?

Orthopedic injury care focuses on diagnosing and treating injuries and conditions that affect your muscles, joints, bones, tendons and ligaments — everything that keeps you moving. At WellNow, we specialize in non-surgical orthopedic care, which means we use patient-specific, evidence-based treatments to restore your function and relieve your pain without surgery. If/when necessary, we will arrange for more advanced imaging/testing and refer you to an Orthopedic surgeon for a consultation. Our goal is always to get you back to the activities you love as quickly and safely as possible.

What Conditions Do You Treat?

Our orthopedic injury clinic treats a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions, including:

• Rotator cuff injury/strain

• Joint pain (shoulder, knee, hip, elbow, wrist, hand)

• Sprains and strains

• Suspected fractures

• Sports injuries

• Tendinopathy (tennis elbow, rotator cuff issues)

• Bursitis

What Happens During My Visit?

Here's what you can expect when you come in:

• An X-ray: Available on-site and included in your visit cost

• A Physical Exam: A provider will evaluate your signs and symptoms with an evidence-based orthopedic assessment

• Diagnosis & Treatment Plan: Leave with a clear understanding of your injury and a personalized recovery roadmap. Treatment may include DME (braces, crutches, splints), a cortisone injection, and/or a coordinated referral to a physical therapy or chiropractic partner

• Follow-up Care: We’ll see you through your recovery, not just your first visit. Our goal is to make your care as seamless and convenient as possible

What Are Cortisone (Steroid) Injections?

A cortisone injection is a liquid anti-inflammatory medication placed directly into an inflamed joint, tendon, ligament, or bursa. It works by rapidly reducing localized inflammation so your body can begin its natural healing process and feel better.

What can a cortisone injection treat?

• Shoulder / Rotator Cuff: Reduces subacromial or glenohumeral inflammation, restoring range of motion and pain relief, which can also optimize physical therapy participation

• Knee: Manages acute inflammation from osteoarthritis or meniscal degeneration

• Elbow / Tendinopathy: Provides short-term and sometimes long-term relief, which optimizes participation with physical therapy

• Trigger Finger / Carpal Tunnel/ Dequervain's Tendonitis: Targeted relief to reduce tendon sheath inflammation and restore hand function

What is the goal of a cortisone injection?

At best, a cortisone injection provides long-lasting pain relief. At minimum, it creates a temporary window of reduced pain that allows you to participate in physical therapy and actively recover—rather than simply waiting out the pain.

Do You Offer Physical Therapy?

Physical therapy is not provided directly at our clinic, but we coordinate referrals to preferred physical therapy and chiropractic partners to ensure your care is seamless and well-coordinated. Think of us as your orthopedic home base — we manage your condition and connect you with the right care partners when needed.

What Does Orthopedic Care Cost at WellNow?

We believe expert orthopedic care should be accessible and transparent. We accept most major insurance plans. DME, PCR testing, and injections are not included in the base visit rate. Physical therapy referrals are billed directly through our partner network.
