OAN has had a great track record
with Workers’ Compensation injuries. By applying
our sports medicine approach to those injuries, we achieve
excellent outcomes. These injuries are treated with state-of-the-art
sports medicine techniques. Examples of this are the arthroscopic
rotator cuff repair and the arthroscopic Bankart reconstruction
of the shoulder. Also, arthroscopic treatment of ACL and
PCL injuries, meniscal injuries, and cartilage injuries
in the knee use the very latest arthroscopic advances.
With a sports medicine approach, patients not only benefit
from advanced surgical techniques, but they also experience
faster recovery times and are able to return to work more
quickly. Our goal is to return the patient to his/her
pre-injury functional status in a timely manner.
Patients also benefit from the one-on-one experience
with Dr. Gregory Markarian. OAN is not an orthopedic factory;
OAN patients receive personalized care. In-house physical
therapy also improves the Workers’ Compensation
experience because the therapists provide continuity of
that one-on-one care with the patient. This is invaluable
from the standpoint of both care and efficient delivery
of care insuring a speedy recovery. OAN is HIPAA compliant
and is a digital orthopedic office. The records for case
managers are easily accessed and its electronic medical
record is accessible at the conclusion of the patient’s
visit. This facilitates the flow of patient information
in an efficient manner. Overall, it is OAN’s excellent
outcomes, one-on-one personal experience, in-house physical
therapy, and state-of-the-art medical information management
system, which makes it the obvious choice for the treatment
of Workers’ Compensation injuries.
