Trigg County Orthopedic Family Medicine, PLLC is a non-surgical orthopedic practice dedicated to caring for all types of muscle, bone, or joint problems associated with an acute injury or age-related wear. Each patient will receive compassionate care tailored to meet their individual needs.
At TCOFM we believe your time is valuable and will be offering same or next-day appointments, shorter waiting room times and each patient will receive as much time with the provider as necessary to ensure your needs are met. While referrals are always accepted, patients may call directly unless their insurance specifically requires a referral. We take walk-ins and area providers can call to have a patient worked into the appointment schedule for patients that need more urgent care.
Most orthopedic problems can be successfully treated without surgery and we will make every effort to exhaust all conservative measures and avoid rushing patients into a treatment plan they are not comfortable with pursuing.
