Rhode Orthopedic Research Institute

Dr. Rhode is fellowship trained in sports medicine.  He specializes in treating the injured athlete as well as the industrial athlete.  We specialize in providing access to treatment when litigation is involved.  Studies show most outcomes are better when treatment occurs in a timely fashion.   Earlier appropriate treatment means better results and lower costs.   Your doctor needs to be willing to navigate the medical authorization landscape.   Most doctors’ offices do not want to be burdened with the paperwork involved in obtaining authorization.   This places the injured party on the sidelines, becoming deconditioned and resulting in a more expensive worse outcome.
