When you’re injured, the last thing you want is to wait days or weeks for advice. Orthopedic virtual consultations via the HURT! app provide a timely solution, offering professional care from the comfort of your home or wherever the injury happens. In this blog, we’ll explain virtual consultations, discuss when to seek one and introduce HURT!, a new app designed for instant orthopedic advice.
What is a Virtual Orthopedic Consultation?
Having a best friend, neighbor, or family member who works in the medical field brings peace of mind. If an accident happens, you can ask them for advice anytime, free of charge. But not everyone has that option, and even if you do, sometimes that person can only do so much.
That’s where virtual orthopedic consultations come in. A virtual orthopedic consultation is like having a doctor friend available 24/7.
Through virtual visits on the HURT! App, you can get immediate, professional advice on orthopedic concerns. The specialist can guide you on whether you need to visit the emergency room or see a doctor. It’s completely free, with no insurance billing involved. Plus, if you need an appointment, the specialist will facilitate an appointment by having the practice contact you directly.
When should you seek an Orthopedic Virtual Visit?
Virtual orthopedic consultations are ideal for non-emergency situations requiring professional advice. A virtual consultation can provide quick guidance on the next steps if you experience a sudden injury that isn’t life-threatening but still requires immediate attention. Additionally, if an injury occurs after regular office hours and you’re unsure whether to visit the emergency room or wait until morning, the HURT! app offers immediate professional advice on the appropriate course of action.

Virtual orthopedic consultations offer many advantages, transforming how patients access care. Here’s a closer look at the benefits you can expect:
