The Right Care for Getting You Back to Work
To assist employees in getting back on the job, Bienville Orthopaedic Specialists offer five clinic locations on the Mississippi Gulf Coast that are designed for convenience and efficiency.
Ortho Urgent Care
Bienville Orthopaedic Services offers Ortho Urgent Care at the Orange Grove and East Lake locations. By utilizing a direct to orthopaedic approach, an injury is addressed by an orthopaedic specialist with minimal wait time. Our specialists assign modified duty if safe to do so.

MRIs are available onsite at our Cedar Lake and East Lake locations. MRIs can be ordered independent of an orthopaedic referral. We focus on expediting services for our workers’ compensation patients with MRI appointments typically offered the same day or next day as their doctor’s appointment.
Our filmless digital diagnostic X-ray system presents a more detailed image to the physician, providing a higher quality of imaging to diagnose and treat the patient efficiently.
