Injuries don’t make appointments

There is now a place to go for the sprains, strains, fractures and other orthopedic injuries that happen after 5 p.m. ORTHOcare at the Orthopaedic and Sports Management Institute will offer urgent care from 5 to 9 p.m. on weeknights and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. A team of fellowship-trained musculoskeletal physicians and physician assistants will provide high-quality and convenient care, with X-ray and casting services available. “ORTHOcare After Hours is unique because it strictly deals with muscle, bone and joint conditions and injuries, and it’s the only offering of its kind in the region,” said Les Jebson, executive director of the Orthopaedics and Sports Management Institute. ORTHOcare will be located within the institute at 3450 Hull Road in Gainesville. For more information, please call 352-273-7001 or visit www.ortho.ufl.edu.
