A member asked:
What happens if i was to go to the er for my shoulder, what would they do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Referral: If this is not an acute problem, the er would probably refer to your family doctor or more than likely an orthopedic surgeon. It would be more cost effective to bypass the er since they are geared to treat true emergencies.
