Is This ConsultationRight For You?
Three distinct patients. One consistent experience: clarity before commitment.
The Weekend Warrior
Torn ACL · Rotator Cuff · Labrum
You can't wait six weeks to find out if you need surgery.
You tore your ACL on Saturday. Your orthopedist has a six-week wait. You have a season, a job, a life that can't pause for a scheduling queue. Dr. Calloway reviews your MRI, walks you through the tear, and tells you exactly what your options are — this week.
Average consult window
The Aging Parent
Hip Arthritis · Knee Pain · Spinal Stenosis
Hip pain stole their morning walk. You want answers, not a waiting list.
Your mother's hip pain has kept her housebound for three months. Her PCP ordered X-rays but couldn't interpret them. Dr. Calloway reviews the imaging, explains the arthritis grade, discusses replacement candidacy, and gives you a clear next step — without a two-state drive.
Average patient distance
The Post-Op Patient
ACL Reconstruction · Shoulder Repair · Hip Replacement
You had surgery three states away. Follow-up shouldn't cost a flight.
You had your knee reconstructed at a top center four months ago. You're back home, PT is going well, but something feels off. Dr. Calloway reviews your post-op report, assesses your current function on video, and tells you whether to push through or pull back.
Report turnaround
Clarity changes everything.
"I had my MRI on Monday, uploaded it Tuesday morning, and had a 45-minute call with Dr. Calloway by Wednesday afternoon. He drew on the scan, explained the SLAP tear in plain language, and told me exactly why PT alone wouldn't fix it. I went into surgery with zero surprises."
SLAP II Tear — Right Shoulder
Arthroscopic repair · 4-month recovery

Marcus Delgado
Competitive cyclist, 41
"My mother is 74 and had been told she "probably needs a hip replacement" by three different doctors who never explained the imaging. Dr. Calloway spent thirty minutes showing us the X-ray, grading the arthritis, and laying out a conservative pathway first. She starts PT next week."
Hip Osteoarthritis — Grade III
Conservative PT protocol · Surgery deferred

Diane Okonkwo
Daughter of patient, Seattle WA
"Six months post-ACL reconstruction, something wasn't tracking right. My surgeon was back in Boston. Dr. Calloway reviewed my post-op report, watched me do a single-leg squat on video, and identified a quad activation deficit my PT had missed. Changed my whole rehab program."
ACL Reconstruction — Follow-up
Rehab protocol adjusted · Full return at 8mo
