Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R)

Rehabilitation is a core part of our orthopedic care pathway. AMNM provides dedicated 1:1 physiotherapy sessions in a specialized gym located within the facility. Plans are customized to the patient’s needs and guided by both the orthopedic physician and licensed rehabilitation therapist.
Our rehabilitation services are designed to promote recovery, restore function, and reduce the risk of re-injury, whether following surgery, injury, or a long-standing musculoskeletal condition.

On-Site Imaging and Diagnostics

To support timely evaluations and a seamless patient experience, AMNM offers diagnostic imaging services on the same floor as the Orthopedics department, including:

  • Digital X-ray
  • High-resolution 1.5T MRI scan

This ensures accurate diagnosis, reduced patient movement, and more efficient care planning.

Designed Around Your Recovery

Orthopedic services at AMNM extend beyond procedures. Each patient’s journey is defined by thoughtful consultation, advanced capabilities, and individualized follow-up. From the first appointment through recovery, care is delivered within a calm, private setting supported by U.S.-based healthcare standards and an integrated care model.
Our goal is not only to treat injury or discomfort but also to restore strength, mobility, and confidence with precision and continuity.
