A Day in the Life of a Patient at The Stone Clinic



The Stone Clinic is different because we are interested not merely in repairing your body, but in returning you to your active life, fitter, faster and stronger than you were before injury.

When you become a patient at The Stone Clinic, you are cared for completely. Your physician is the founder, Dr. Kevin Stone, not an intern or a junior partner.  From the time you arrive at San Francisco’s Marina District and check in, you’ll be cared for in one comfortable facility.  Your Xray, MRI, and physical therapy are all right here.  There is no running from place to place with prescriptions.  Your doctor  takes ample time with you, and you will take part in personal conversations with Dr. Stone, your radiology techs, and your physical therapist as your course of treatment is planned.

We believe strongly in physical therapy. If, however, you require surgery that falls within our expertise, Dr. Stone will perform the procedure at a private, state of the art surgery center in San Francisco. The next day you’ll be back in The Stone Clinic for further evaluation, care and, if appropriate, your first day of physical therapy.

Dr. Stone will personally oversee your post-operative recovery and therapy if you remain in San Francisco. If you are an out-of-town patient and prefer to return home, we will communicate and coordinate with your personal physician and therapists.
