A Message to Our Patients Regarding COVID-19

, , Blog

At Atlanta Medical Clinic, the wellbeing and safety of our patients is of utmost importance. It always has, and always will be the reason we opened our doors so many years ago – to improve the lives of everyone we can.

During this difficult time, Atlanta Medical Clinic wants our patients to know we are here for you.

  • If you’re in pain, we’re here to help.
  • If you have questions, we’re here to answer them.
  • And if you need treatment, we’re here to provide it.

To that end, while taking additional precautions, we now are offering new ways in which we can assist you in this time of crisis.

Injury Care

During this time we are willing and able to see patients outside our usual scope of treatment to care for most types of injury. We want to offer this solution so that patients are able to avoid going to the emergency room, where there’s a much higher risk of exposure to COVID-19.

Video Consultations Are Now Available

If you have questions, are in pain, or need our medical attention in any way – we want you to know we are here for you. To that end, we are offering video consultations for all existing patients. Simply call the main number, and a member of our staff will make the arrangements for you to speak with one of our medical professionals.

We Are Still Seeing Patients

During this time, we are still OPEN and serving our patients with extra precautions in place to minimize the risk of COVID-19.

We want to underline the efforts we undergo to maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of our facilities, along with methods of social distancing to protect all patients:

  • We strictly limit the number of people in the clinic at any one time, and schedule accordingly.
  • We ask that friends and family members wait outside during your visit.
  • Anyone with a temperature is asked to cancel their appointment
  • Our staff is regularly disinfecting surfaces, counters, seats, and door handles throughout the day
  • Daily sanitation and disinfection of all equipment with professional-grade antibacterial cleaner
  • Used masks, syringes, wipes, gloves, and tissues are removed safely and are disposed of daily
  • Hand sanitizer is available in locations throughout our establishment

If you aren’t feeling well, please cancel your appointment with no penalty.

We appreciate your cooperation as we take these proactive steps to take care of each other and ourselves. We will update our website daily. For the most up-to-date information regarding coronavirus, visit the WHO or CDC website.

Safe, Non-Surgical Solutions for Treating Knee Pain

, Pain Management

If you’re suffering from knee pain, you’re certainly not alone. From osteoarthritis to injury to wear-and-tear, it affects millions of people every day. In fact, the prevalence of knee pain is an estimated 19% of the population. And as you get older, you’re more likely to suffer. It’s no wonder why knee surgery is one of the most common operating procedures in the US.

Yet today, more healthcare professionals question the abundance of knee surgery. A 2013 study compared two-year outcomes of patients who received surgery versus a placebo group, receiving a “sham” procedure. The authors concluded that there was “no significant between group changes.” Meaning – those who received a fake procedure were no better off than the group with real knee surgery.

Luckily, there are solutions – no surgery or pills required. Read on for Atlanta Medical Clinic’s treatment for patients with knee pain.
