You’ve got less than 2 days left of July which means Summer is also almost over. Anything left on the summer bucket list? We made some homemade ice cream last night so we can cross that one off.
Let's get to it!

Together with Advanced Orthopaedic Associates
There are times when you need to visit the ER.
But there are also times when there are better options, like AOA Now Orthopaedic Immediate Care from Advanced Orthopaedic Associates.
If you experience a sudden bone, joint, or muscle injury such as a sprain, strain, broken bone, sports injury, or sudden joint pain, their team can help you get the care you need without the long waits or high cost of the emergency room.
Walk-ins are welcome, and you will be seen by orthopaedic specialists who can evaluate your injury, order imaging if needed, and help coordinate follow-up care in one visit.
AOA Now is open seven days a week, making it a convenient option when injuries happen outside normal doctor’s office hours. Check out both the east or the west locations.
