Dr. Matthys often sees patients regarding care they've received elsewhere
If you would like Dr. Matthys to review your X-rays and determine the next appropriate step in your treatment, then you will need to do the following:
1. Fill out appropriate medical history form, provide contact information, and send it back to Dr. Matthys.
2. Mail X-rays taken within 1 year to M.O.C. To do this have the facility at which they were taken send them directly to Dr. Matthys' office. If you’ve had surgery, office visits, or any other type of tests done these may also be sent with the X-rays.
This requires you to sign a release of information and then contact those facilities. We can assist you with this process.
3. Or ultimately, it may be that Dr. Matthys will need to see you in his clinic as a new patient. To see which location would be closest to you, visit our locations page.
It is important that you as the patient must understand that it is difficult to give medical advice and an opinion without Dr. Matthys reviewing pertinent lab/x-ray and performing a physical examination. Common questions can generally be answered with a discussion over the telephone. Definitive medical advice regarding your care can not be determined by a phone consultation.
