What to Expect During a Sports Medicine Consultation
Comprehensive Evaluation and Movement Testing to Identify the Source of Pain
Your first consultation begins with an in-depth discussion of your symptoms and medical history, followed by a comprehensive medical evaluation and physical examination. Our sports medicine physician will perform movement tests and, if necessary, may recommend examinations such as a musculoskeletal ultrasound to establish an accurate diagnosis of the source of your pain. When appropriate, collaboration with certified athletic therapists may also support your recovery process.
Development of a Treatment Plan Adapted to Your Condition and Sport
Once the diagnosis has been established, we will clearly explain your condition and the treatment options available. Together, we will develop a personalized care plan designed to relieve pain, support healing and help prevent recurrence. An ultrasound can also be performed on site during your appointment.
Our Services
We offer all the services needed to help you regain your full abilities. Movement testing allows us to assess your condition and determine which service is best suited to your needs, including:
Ultrasound-guided injections;
Casts;
Splints;
Viscosupplementation Injections (Synvisc®, Monovisc®, SportVis®)
Viscosupplementation injections using products such as Synvisc®, Monovisc® and SportVis® are recognized treatments used to relieve joint pain and improve mobility, particularly in cases of osteoarthritis or reduced synovial fluid. These injections aim to restore the joint’s lubricating and cushioning properties in order to reduce inflammation and improve joint function.
At Médicym private medical clinic, wether you go to our Blainville clinic or Boisbriand private clinic, our injections are ultrasound-guided and performed by experienced professionals in a safe environment that follows current medical standards. The viscosupplementation product, made with hyaluronic acid, is injected precisely into the targeted joint, whether it is the knee, hip, shoulder or another joint, to provide long-lasting pain relief and a significant improvement in quality of life.
Do not let an injury slow you down. Take control of your health and performance again. Our team of healthcare professionals is here to support you.
