Specialty Procedures

In addition to the routine care and services you'd expect from an established and well-rounded family health practice, Ravenscroft also offers some additional services and areas of expertise that you wouldn't ordinarily expect. Here are just a few.

Radiowave Surgery

Radiowave “surgery” is a safe, non-invasive procedure that allows us to gently and permanently remove benign moles and lesions from the skin. This is a cosmetic procedure that uses actual radiowaves (similar to marine band radios) to melt away or cut tissue. But because it is completely non-invasive, radiowave surgery causes much less damage than standard electrosurgery or other cutting or freezing techniques. The procedure can be performed right here in our office in a surprisingly short time. For more information, we invite you to talk to your Ravenscroft Family Health Care physician during your next visit.

Therapeutic Injections

If you suffer from acute or chronic joint pain, the physicians at Ravenscroft may be able to help you with a therapeutic steroid injection during your office visit.  This therapy is indicated when initial treatment (a course of oral anti-inflammatory medicine and ice treatment for two weeks), fails to alleviate pain.  Please discuss this with your physician if you think this might be indicated.
