HeCares has officially added a service that founder Dr. Frank He has been manning himself for years, 24/7 Emergency Care. For some time now Frank has been envisioning the full effect of this service, a service that has the essence of treating our patients like members of our family or village. With our team expanding, HeCares finally has the capacity to spearhead this vision, that is unique to our clinic. This means that the Team at Integrative Sports Medicine will be available any time day or night for, non life threatening, in-home or in-office visits.
Just last week I had the opportunity to see how valuable this service is. A women in her sixties fell Sunday morning on her outstretched hand fracturing both her radius and ulna in multiple places. With no insurance coverage, the medical bills would have easily reached into the thousands of dollars, including an undeterminable amount of wait time at urgent care or emergency. HeCares was able to provide prompt service at a fraction of the cost sending our new patient in for x ray, as well as using acupuncture to reduce swelling and pain and immobilizing the broken arm. Over the course of this week, just two days later, and with the start of a course of treatments we are already seeing signs of the healing process.
Our new patient is not only grateful, but both she and her supportive daughter are entering the office with smiles. A heartwarming thing to see after the tears and panic of Sunday.
