Contact Us

In the event of a life-threatening medical emergency, call emergency medical services at 911 immediately. DO NOT WAIT! Inform the emergency room staff that you are a patient of Spectrum Orthopaedics and they will contact us.

If you have an urgent medical need and need to talk to our doctors after our regular hours, please call our office at (330) 305-0838. A doctor is on-call 24 hours a day. Your call will be returned promptly.

At Spectrum Orthopaedics, we accept workers’ compensation, Medicare, and most major insurance plans. Please contact your insurance company or you may call our office at (330) 305-0838 to find out if we accept your insurance plan.

If your insurance plan requires you to pay a co-payment, co-insurance, and/or a deductible, you will need to pay at the time of your visit. For your convenience we accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.

If you have a question related to your bill or insurance, please contact our billing specialists at (330) 305-0838.

Office Visits: If your insurance is an HMO/managed care plan and you are required to obtain a referral from your primary care physician, the referral must be obtained before you can be seen for an office visit. Please coordinate this with your primary care physician in advance. Appointments will be rescheduled if required referrals are not received in the office by the time of your visit.

Therapy Center: If you need physical, occupational, or hand therapy, you will need a referral from your physician or medical provider (primary care doctor, nurse practitioner, orthopedic surgeon, podiatrist, chiropractor, etc.) for insurance to pay for your rehab treatment.

Spectrum Orthopaedics will accept an initial referral by fax, by phone, or by email from your provider, and we will obtain the needed signed prescription within days of your referral, or you may bring the signed referral form with you to our office.

Our doctors have been awarded staff privileges at the following hospitals:

• Aultman Hospital
• Mercy Medical Center
• Cuyahoga Falls General Hospital
• Aultman Same Day Surgery Center

Rounds are made as necessary on hospitalized patients. Feel free to ask any questions you may have during rounds. Our doctors are always happy to discuss a patient’s condition with family members when requested to do so by the patient.

Prescriptions and refills for established patients of Spectrum Orthopaedics are routinely issued during our regular office hours (see above). You can make your request by calling our office at (330) 305-0838.

No refills are issued during the evenings, weekends, or holidays, as the doctors do not have access to your medical records during those times. It is helpful to anticipate your refill needs to avoid an interruption in your medication therapy.
