Dr. Newell was very personal and explained the diagnosis by providing examples. This technique allowed me to gain a better understanding of what's happening to me. He was also clear about what my options are and set a time frame for follow up. I loved it!

I love first state orthopedics. I'm finally getting my back taken care of and Dr Newell is very good. He explains everything well and I feel like he takes his time with me. And I loved their surgery center... had to throw them in. The nurses were wonderful there!!

Questions & Answers

When can I expect to feel relief from a steroid injection?

First State Spine - William M. Newell, MD | Oct 21, 2022

We inject a mixture of steroid with a local anesthetic (numbing medication). You may feel some improvement immediately after the injection due to the numbing medication which works quickly. The numbing medication only works for several hours and then wears off. You may feel your pain return, and this is normal. It can take up to 10 days for the steroid to have its full analgesic effect.

What are some non-surgical treatments that your practice performs for back and neck pain?

First State Spine - William M. Newell, MD | Oct 5, 2022

First State Spine has a variety of minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment options for back and neck pain including steroid injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency neurotomies.

What can I expect at my first appointment if I am not interested in surgery?

First State Spine - William M. Newell, MD | Sep 5, 2022

The foundation for our non-surgical treatment plans is an accurate diagnosis of the source of your pain. Once the pain generator is identified, a conservative care treatment plan is initiated. Each plan is developed on an individual basis and may include medical management, physical therapy, physiatry, or spinal injections.

Does your practice handle Worker Injuries?

First State Spine - William M. Newell, MD | Aug 6, 2022

First State Spine facilitates and expedites the care of injured workers; serving as liaisons with the employer, adjuster, attorney, and others to make the treatment process as smooth as possible.
