General Practitioners

Arthritis
Plantar Fasciitis
Primary Care
If your insurance is an HMO/managed care plan and you are required to obtain a referral from your primary care doctor, the referral must be obtained before you can be seen for an office visit. Please coordinate this with your primary care doctor in advance. Appointments will be rescheduled if required referrals are not received in the office by the time of your visit.
Family Practice
Bozena, also known as Bo, worked in a Family Practice office for 3 years in upstate New York when she first graduated as a Physician Assistant. She then moved to Florida and joined Palm Beach Orthopaedic Institute in 2007 working solely with Dr. Clay Baynham. Bo has been assisting in surgery for the past 10 years. She sees patients with Dr. Baynham in our office and trauma patients in the hospital. Bo enjoys assisting in pre- and post-operative care of patients while tending to all of their needs. She understands that when a patient has a spine injury or disorder, it significantly affects their quality of life. She takes pride in getting to know each patient, answering all questions thoroughly, and watching their improvement post-operatively, making Bo an integral member of Dr. Baynham’s team.
Emergency Care
If you visit an urgent care or emergency room prior to being seen at PBOI, please bring any imaging (ie x-rays) to your appointment.
Electrocardiogram
Patients undergoing inpatient procedures or major surgeries will need routine blood work and a urinalysis performed within 4 weeks leading up to your scheduled surgery date. In addition, a chest x-ray and EKG may be ordered. A physical examination will be performed by your primary care physician within 1 month of surgery.

Internal Medicine
Before joining the team at Palm Beach Orthopaedics Institute, Gabriela worked in a multitude of medical settings including Regenerative Medicine, Endovascular, and Urology-Oncology. She also comes with a very strong background in internal medicine from several years of experience. She is very passionate about the medical field and enjoys keeping up to date on the latest trends and findings by attending conferences, learning directly from Dr. Mora, and using up to date resources.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Dr. Kearse already did my left carpal tunnel surgery, I just went back and him do my right hand. This was a great experience even if it is surgery. Dr. Kearse is really an amazing surgeon and I highly recommend him if you need this done too.

Ultrasound
Personnel were very personable and welcoming. Dr. Leighton was thorough in the exam and prescribed a cortisone shot which was administered by Margaret under ultrasound - relatively painless in spite of the size of the needles.
MRI
You must bring your disc with your MRI images and your written MRI report to your appointment for your MRI review. The imaging center will provide you with the images and it usually takes about two days for imaging centers to complete your report.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
The source of pain is determined by the physician with a physical examination and other medical imaging devices which may include X-rays, MRI scan, CT scan, EMG, etc. PBOI uses a variety of diagnostic tests to help identify the specific nature of your injury or condition. It is critical for patients to work with a specialist to identify the underlying conditions causing their pain, and then develop an appropriate treatment plan.

Thanks, Dr. Noble and staff!!
