Schedule By Physician
When you search by physician, you will see appointments available with the physician at the office location(s) where he practices. If the provider does not specialize in the reason for your visit, you will be prompted to contact our team by phone. Our team will assist you in identifying a physician who can treat your orthopaedic needs.
Why do I need to enter information about my ailment?
The providers at Advanced Orthopaedics are fellowship-trained specialists, and we want to partner you with someone who can best address your specific needs. When you go to schedule an appointment, you will be asked to tell us more about your ailment. Think “where does it hurt?” such as “foot, knee or shoulder.”
We may ask one or two follow up questions based on your response. Some orthopaedic conditions can mimic other ailments. For example, hip pain could feel like back pain. By answering these questions, we can more quickly get to the source of your pain.
What information will I need about my insurance to be able to schedule an appointment?
When scheduling your appointment online, we will ask for several pieces of information about your insurance provider. This feedback allows us to verify your insurance information prior to your appointment and make your visit simpler.
You should be able to find everything you need on your insurance card. Just tell us about:
- The name of your insurer or insurance plan
- Your policy or member number
- Your Plan ID or group number
What if I don’t have insurance?
When asked to provide insurance details, you can choose ‘Self Pay’ if you do not have an insurance provider. You will be able to proceed with making an appointment.
What if Advanced Orthopaedics is out of my network?
After entering your insurance information, you will be notified if AOSM is out of your network. You will be advised to call us at 281.955.7577 to help you schedule an appointment.

What if I’m planning to use workers’ comp?

If you plan on using workers’ compensation you will need to call 281.955.7577 and a member of our team will be able to assist you with scheduling an appointment related to an injury at work.
