Orthopedic Urgent Care in Bend, Oregon
Same-Day & Next-Day Orthopedic Urgent Care Care at High Desert Sports & Spine
Injuries don’t happen on a schedule. Whether it’s a sudden ankle injury on the trail, a shoulder injury at the gym, or a painful fall at work, acute orthopedic injuries need timely, expert evaluation.
At High Desert Sports & Spine, our Orthopedic Urgent Care in Bend, Oregon, offers same-day or next-day appointments for musculoskeletal injuries—without the long waits or uncertainty of an emergency room visit.
You’re evaluated by a provider specializing in musculoskeletal and orthopedic medicine from the start, so you get clear answers and appropriate next steps right away.
What Is Orthopedic Urgent Care?
Orthopedic urgent care is designed specifically for bone, joint, muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries that need prompt attention but are not life-threatening.
Unlike standard urgent care clinics or emergency rooms:
- Upon arrival, our team will provide prompt evaluation, diagnostic testing, and treatment.
- Care is orthopedic-focused, led by highly trained professionals who specialize in these types of injuries.
- Evaluation is performed by our team of experts experienced in musculoskeletal injuries, and your personalized care and follow-up are guided by our team of specialized physicians.
- Follow-up care will typically continue in-house.
If your injury affects movement, strength, or stability, orthopedic urgent care is often the most direct path to the right care.
Common Injuries We Treat At Our Orthopedic Urgent Care in Bend, Oregon
Our orthopedic urgent care team in Bend, Oregon, commonly evaluates:
- Sprains and strains
- Suspected fractures or stress injuries

Why Choose Orthopedic Urgent Care Instead of the ER?
Emergency rooms are essential for serious or life-threatening conditions—but for orthopedic injuries, they often involve:
- Long wait times, sitting in a waiting room with other patients who may have the flu or other contagious conditions
- Higher out-of-pocket costs
- Seeing a provider with limited musculoskeletal or orthopedic specialization
- Referrals elsewhere for diagnostic testing and follow-up care, prolonging the time to receive proper care and treatment
Our Orthopedic urgent care in Bend, Oregon, is best for sudden, non–life-threatening bone and joint problems, especially when you suspect a fracture or serious sprain but don’t need the ER.
