Fractures Dr. Dold treats
What happens at your visit
- Bring what you have: any X-rays, CT or MRI discs and reports, plus the discharge papers from the ER or urgent care.
- Exam and imaging: Dr. Dold examines the injury and reviews or orders the imaging needed to decide on treatment.
- A clear plan: a cast, boot, brace or sling for many fractures, or surgery when the bone is out of place or the joint is unstable. Surgery is done at surgery centers and hospitals in Frisco and the surrounding area.
Not every fracture needs surgery
Recent randomized trials have changed how many common fractures are treated:
- Ankle fractures in older adults: a close-contact cast gave similar function to surgery at six months for many unstable ankle fractures.1 A 2026 trial found casting was not worse than surgery for one common type of unstable outer ankle (lateral malleolus) fracture.2
- After ankle fracture surgery: putting weight on the ankle early was as safe and effective as waiting.3
- Shoulder fractures: for many displaced fractures of the top of the arm bone, surgery did not give better results than a sling and rehab.4
- Collarbone fractures: for displaced midshaft fractures, plate fixation lowered the risk of the bone not healing compared with a sling.5
- Hip fractures in older adults: earlier surgery is associated with lower mortality, which is why hip fractures are treated promptly.6
Dr. Dold will explain which group your fracture falls into and the trade-offs of each option.

Questions about fracture care
Can I walk in with a broken bone?
Yes. New patients can walk in Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8:30 to 10:30 am, and same-day appointments are available. For anything listed in the red box at the top of this page, go to the emergency room.
Is this an urgent care clinic?
No. This is an orthopedic surgeon’s office. We see fractures and acute injuries quickly, but emergencies belong in an emergency room.
I was told to follow up with an orthopedic surgeon. What should I do?
Request an appointment and mention the fracture in the comment section, or call 469-850-0680. Bring your imaging and discharge papers.
Will I need surgery?
Many fractures heal in a cast, boot, brace or sling. Surgery is recommended when the bone is out of place, the joint is unstable, or the research shows surgery gives a better result.
Does Dr. Dold accept my insurance?
Dr. Dold accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicare and Tricare. Please call 469-850-0680 to confirm your coverage.
