Each consultation is performed directly by Dr. Bernhardt and includes a detailed history, focused examination, review of prior imaging, and assessment of previous treatments.
Diagnostic ultrasound is used to further evaluate joints, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and other structures that may be contributing to symptoms.
Many patients arrive after months or years of treatment without clear answers.
They may have completed physical therapy, undergone injections, consulted multiple specialists, or been told that imaging does not fully explain their symptoms.
In some cases, treatment was directed at where pain was felt rather than what was actually causing it.
The consultation is designed to determine whether there is a more precise explanation for your symptoms and whether additional treatment options may be appropriate.
Understanding the source of symptoms is not the end goal. It is how treatment becomes more targeted, more thoughtful, and more likely to help.
Treatment recommendations are based on findings from the consultation rather than a predetermined treatment pathway.
Depending on the diagnosis, recommendations may include image-guided procedures, regenerative medicine, rehabilitation strategies, activity modification, recovery-focused IV therapy, or other supportive measures.
Not every patient requires an intervention. In some cases, the most valuable outcome of the consultation is a clearer understanding of what is causing symptoms and what options are most appropriate moving forward.
