Dr. Brooks performs a focused physical exam and reviews relevant imaging or testing to help identify the source of your pain. He may order additional imaging, perform an in-office diagnostic ultrasound, or an in-office EMG/NCS test depending on your symptoms.

You’ll leave with a clear explanation of what’s likely causing your symptoms and next steps tailored to your diagnosis and goals.

YOUR OPTIONS

Treatment Options

Every treatment plan starts with a thorough evaluation–there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to musculoskeletal pain. Depending on what Dr. Brooks finds, your plan may include conservative care, rehabilitation recommendations, osteopathic treatment, image-guided procedures, and other appropriate options based on your specific diagnosis.

Treatment recommendations are individualized based on your evaluation. Not every option is appropriate for every condition, and specific recommendations will be discussed with you directly.
