Please call the Athletic Trainers if your athlete needs to be evaluated for an injury. We are available 24/7. If you get our voicemail, please leave a message and we will return your call ASAP.

If you need to see Western Carolina Orthopedics, you can set up an appointment 2 ways:

1) Your Athletic Trainer can coordinate an appointment for you through the office. This is usually the easiest method.

2) You can call the Orthopedic office directly at (828) 452-4131, but please be sure to tell them the athlete goes to Tuscola. The office makes every effort to get the appointment as quickly as possible, but if the time given is not convenient, you can ask the office for a different time or call your Athletic Trainer for assistance.
