Q&A: Our Frisco/Summit County Orthopaedic Urgent Care

Vail-Summit Orthopaedics & Neurosurgery opened our orthopaedic urgent care in November of 2018. Since then, we have served many in the Summit County community with top orthopaedic care— allowing urgent care patients to skip the long lines of the emergency room.

Ortho-specific care is tailored towards orthopaedic injuries. For a list of common conditions, please scroll down.


What is the advantage of orthopaedic urgent care?


The goal of providing ortho-specific care in an urgent care setting is to get you seen by an orthopaedic specialist quicker and treated quicker than you would at a traditional urgent care or ER.
