How It Works

From consultation to recovery — a simple, four-step path to lasting relief.

01

Consultation

Contact us to book a phone call consultation with Dr. Sara or Dr. Desai to determine if Arthrosamid® is right for you, and we will send you our intake questionnaire to proceed.

02

Assessment

Once we receive your questionnaire and any pertinent imaging we review to decide if Arthrosamid® is the right treatment for you and can proceed with booking a formal in office injection.

03

Injection

A single or bilateral ultrasound-guided injection is performed by our team under local anaesthesia, typically a 60–90 minute procedure.

04

Recovery
