Persistent tendinopathy can be difficult to treat, particularly when progressive loading and physical therapy aren’t enough. In this Baptist Health Doc-to-Doc, Dr. Ronald Tolchin is joined by physical medicine and rehabilitation physician Dr. Raul Rosario-Concepcion and orthopedic surgeon Dr. William Davis to discuss how physicians can evaluate chronic tendon disease and determine when to escalate care. They discuss: - Tendinopathy vs. tendonitis and why the distinction matters - Progressi...
Complex vascular disease rarely follows a standard treatment strategy. For patients with challenging anatomy, limited vascular access, significant comorbidities or complex aortic disease, traditional approaches may not be enough. Hybrid vascular procedures combine open surgery with minimally invasive endovascular techniques to expand treatment options and deliver more individualized care. In this Baptist Health Doc-to-Doc discussion, Dr. Tom Nguyen is joined by vascular and endovascular sur...
