What Specialties and Services Does Advanced Orthopedics New England Offer?

Updated

Advanced Orthopedics New England treats general orthopedic problems—sprains, strains, and fractures—for patients of all ages, and also offers focused care in joint replacement, workers' compensation, sports injuries, and trauma and fractures. It runs three orthopedic urgent care locations in Bloomfield, Enfield, and Vernon, Connecticut, and serves patients in Connecticut and Massachusetts. If your problem is a musculoskeletal injury or condition and you want to be seen without a referral or a scheduled appointment, urgent care is the entry point; if you need surgery or ongoing specialty care, the practice's specialists cover those areas too.

Specialties and services

The practice describes its board-certified specialists as offering a comprehensive range of services "designed to help relieve your pain and improve your function and mobility." The highlighted service areas are:

Service area What it covers
Joint Replacement Surgical replacement of damaged joints
Workers' Compensation Care for work-related orthopedic injuries
Sports Injuries Prevention, care, and treatment of athletic injuries
Trauma & Fractures Simple and complex broken bones and traumatic injuries

Alongside these, the practice provides general orthopedic care for everyday problems—sprains, strains, and fractures—for patients of all ages. It also states that it can assess and treat both simple and complex orthopedic injuries and diseases.

A notable detail: the practice has dedicated specialists who specifically focus on preventing, caring for, and treating sports injuries, rather than handling sports medicine only as part of general orthopedics. Two of its surgeons—Dr. Scott Bissell (Sports Medicine) and Dr. Amanda Fantry (Foot and Ankle)—have been recognized as Top Doctors in Connecticut, according to the practice.

Orthopedic urgent care: walk-in access

The three urgent care facilities in Bloomfield, Enfield, and Vernon are set up to treat "all orthopedic problems and injuries." Key operational points from the practice:

  • Walk right in — no appointment is necessary.
  • The practice asks that you call before visiting if possible, at (860) 728-6740.
  • Urgent care is the fastest route for an acute injury when you don't yet know which specialist you need.

How care is organized

When you see one of the practice's orthopedic specialists, the practice says you receive an individualized treatment plan designed to promote fast and lasting healing. In practice, that means the path depends on your problem:

  • Acute injury, no diagnosis yet → orthopedic urgent care (walk-in) for assessment.
  • Ongoing joint pain or a condition needing surgery → a specialist in the relevant service area, such as joint replacement.
  • Work-related injury → the workers' compensation service area.
  • Athletic injury or prevention → a dedicated sports medicine specialist.

Who this practice fits

Advanced Orthopedics New England is a reasonable fit if you:

  • Live in or near Connecticut or Massachusetts and want orthopedic care without a long scheduling delay.
  • Have an acute injury (sprain, strain, possible fracture) and want same-day-style walk-in assessment.
  • Need a specific subspecialty—joint replacement, sports medicine, foot and ankle, trauma—rather than general care only.
  • Are dealing with a work-related orthopedic injury that involves workers' compensation.

It may be less suited if you need care outside orthopedics, or if you require a service the practice does not list among its specialties.
