How Fracture Care Mends What’s Broken

Fractures usually occur without warning, cause sudden pain and impact your ability to move. You may not have time to wait for the next available appointment. So, get seen fast at Midwest Ortho First. Our walk-in service, within the same facility as Midwest Orthopaedic Center’s Peoria location, is equipped with complex imaging capabilities, the latest tools to immobilize broken bones and board-certified specialists who help you move past your pain. It’s an alternative to the emergency room and, under most insurance plans, it costs the price of your standard copay.

No matter how you visit us –– at a walk-in visit or a scheduled appointment –– our doctors specialize in treating sports-related and traumatic injuries. In addition to fracture care, we also help manage your pain through regenerative medicine and injections.

If your broken bone requires a surgical fix, our fracture services at Midwest Orthopaedic Hospital at Carle Health Proctor Hospital will help you regain your normal function. Here, your board-certified surgeons –– Dr. Akeson, Dr. Mitzelfelt and Dr. Osuji –– will repair your broken bone, coordinate physical therapy at Midwest Orthopaedic Center, if needed, and help you find lasting health and mobility.

Meet Our Patients

I chose Dr. Mitzelfelt because he has given great care to other members of my family and friends. I witnessed his care of and for my mom which made me want him to do my knee replacements. I cannot say enough good things about him! Wonderful man and excellent surgeon!

I have been impressed with care and treatment that Dr. Bell has provided me. I needed help with lower back pain and the radio frequency ablation treatment he administered is working. He and his staff are excellent, and I feel that I have been put in very professional hands.

Dr. Brad Roberts is a provider you actually look forward to seeing. He takes time to know you as a patient, is sympathetic, approachable with questions, and overall seems a great person.

A Patient of Dr. Roberts

Dr. Roberts is the best! I enjoy seeing him for my medical issue as he is always so friendly and uplifting. He takes his time with me explaining everything to me and the best treatment available. I told my family members and friends if they need treatment that he provides to only go to him. His staff from the front office to the nurses are friendly and always have a smile just like Dr. Roberts. I just can’t say enough about Dr. Roberts and his entire staff.
