Caring For All Orthopedic Injuries & Conditions
Nevada Orthopedic and Spine Center’s Fast Track Clinic is intended for patients with very recent injuries, sprains or broken bones (fractures). The fast track clinic’s provide immediate access to orthopedic care so you can avoid the emergency room wait and cost. Because patients are seen without appointments, we are unable to predict your wait time.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If you had x-rays taken at another facility, please bring a physical copy with you to our Fast Track Clinic. Otherwise, we may need to repeat your x-rays.
