Have Degenerative Scoliosis, Arthritis, Hip Issues. Whom To Consult?
What category do I need to look for a generalist in the orthopedic field that can look at all my issues before handing me off to specialist so I don't spend extra money on mri's stc that should be inclusive and extra test? I have degenerative scoliosis, but also have arthritis, hip issues, not sure what all is going on so just a spine doctor is not what I need.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your stand, it is old saying that "Old is Gold" in old days when super specialization like branch where not there in field of medicine, the physicians and surgeons used to handled such cases with great success and with less expenses, so here I would advise you to consult some old timer orthopedic surgeon having long experience, have good day.
