OUTSIDE CONSULTATION REQUEST
For patients who are unable to visit the clinic due to geographic or transportation limitations, we offer phone consultations to help the patient with information and to guide their care. Please note that nothing replaces a direct, hands-on clinical evaluation, but we provide this service to help guide a patient’s treatment plan. In order for Dr. Stone to reasonably assess your situation, we would like to see the information included on the Outside Consultation Form. The more information you can provide, the more accurate your consultation will be. Feel free to contact Lola at (415) 563-3110, or email lola@stoneclinic.com in order to schedule an outside consultation.
Please note, if your X-rays and MRI are not obtained at The Stone Clinic, it is important that your films include the following views:
Ankle: Anterior-Posterior (AP), Lateral, Medial Oblique
Elbow: AP, Lateral
Hip: AP Pelvis, Frog Leg
