Norwich Orthopedic

What Norwich Orthopedic does

Norwich Orthopedic (also operating as Orthopedic Partners) is a private, multi-subspecialty orthopedic medical practice headquartered in Norwich, Connecticut, serving patients across southeastern Connecticut and the broader New London County region. The practice operates a unified care model spanning a primary orthopedic clinic, a Saturday Ortho OnDemand walk-in urgent care, on-site physical and occupational therapy, athletic training services embedded at six local schools, and surgical procedures performed under physician privileges at five regional hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers (William W. Backus Hospital, Lawrence & Memorial Hospital, St. Francis Hospital/CT Joint Replacement Institute, River Valley Surgical Center, and Constitution Surgical Center East).

Clinically, the practice delivers comprehensive musculoskeletal care across foot/ankle, hand/wrist/upper extremity, hip, knee, shoulder, and spine/cervical subspecialties, supported by over a dozen fellowship-trained physicians with combined experience exceeding 100 years. Surgical offerings include MAKOplasty robotic-arm assisted partial knee and total hip replacement, Globus Excelcius GPS-guided spinal surgery, minimally invasive surgery (MIS), arthroscopy, and ligament/cartilage reconstruction; non-surgical offerings include fluoroscopic-guided spinal injections, ultrasound procedures, casting/bracing, and on-site X-ray imaging.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services billing through participating health insurance carriers, workers' compensation, and self-pay, with a FollowMyHealth patient portal supporting appointment requests, physician messaging, and bill payment. The go-to-market is direct-to-patient, layered with referral pipelines from primary care physicians, hospital affiliation visibility, and community outreach via school athletic trainers, all concentrated in a single regional market. The practice is currently expanding to a second clinical location.
