Saturday morning...Ocala Health ER determined both bones in wife's forearm broken (from fall on patio).
The break was not displaced hence they made a temporary splint/cast elbow to the palm of the hand and recommended with a referral to see an orthopedic.
Monday morning I called a noted hand surgeon here in TV....first available April 2021....they do not service emergency situations (disappointed but not surprised).
Then called the ER referred Orthopedic around 9 am....appointment that afternoon at 3 PM (in Ocala). They had all the information already available from the ER visit. Excellent response....excellent physician and staff.
