What to Expect During Your Evaluation
We do not treat patients with 7-minute hurried visits. Every consultation is structured around listening, diagnostic precision, and individualized recovery.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Review
We review your medical history, previous treatments, and any existing MRI or X-ray imaging to pinpoint the exact structural and neurological contributors to your symptoms.
Evidence-Based Treatment Plan
Rather than pushing invasive surgical procedures, we outline conservative and image-guided options tailored specifically to your mobility goals, daily schedule, and comfort.
Targeted Relief & Follow-Up
Whether utilizing physical therapy coordination, non-opioid medications, or precision fluoroscopy-guided injections, our team tracks your progress every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about your first appointment or insurance coverage? We are here to help.
Please bring a valid photo ID, your insurance card, a list of current medications, and copies or discs of recent imaging reports (X-rays, MRI, or CT scans) if available. Having previous diagnostic records helps Dr. Amara formulate a comprehensive evaluation during your very first visit.
Many commercial insurance plans and Medicare do not require a formal physician referral to schedule a consultation with our practice. Certain HMO plans or specific Medicaid networks may require a referral from your primary care physician. Our intake team will gladly verify your specific benefits when you request a consultation.
When an interventional procedure is clinically appropriate, it is performed in our accredited in-office fluoroscopy suite. We use real-time X-ray guidance (fluoroscopy) to ensure millimeter precision and patient comfort, without the inconvenience, long check-in lines, or facility surcharges of a large hospital outpatient department.
