Freedom Orthopaedics, the Palm Beach-area practice of board-certified orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Eric Lloyd, has installed the ADAPTIX Ortho350 — a 3D orthopedic imaging system that the practice's Instagram describes as among the first of its kind deployed in an office setting in the country. The move consolidates imaging, diagnosis, and treatment planning under one roof, eliminating the separate facility visits that typically extend an orthopaedic evaluation cycle.

Dr. Lloyd has practiced in the Palm Beach area for over 15 years. He is board-certified and fellowship-trained, and while he treats the full range of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries, his declared subspecialty is foot and ankle — disorders and injuries that often require precise imaging of complex joint and bone structures, the category the ADAPTIX Ortho350 is built to address.

The care model at Freedom Orthopaedics is physician-led: according to the practice, patients are evaluated directly by Dr. Lloyd rather than triaged to support staff. The ADAPTIX installation extends that approach into the diagnostic phase. Rather than sending patients to an outside imaging center — a step that can add days to the evaluation timeline — the 3D system allows detailed in-office assessment of bones, joints, and complex injuries within the same appointment sequence, per the practice.

On access, Freedom Orthopaedics is currently accepting new patients and offers same-day, next-day, and walk-in appointments when availability allows. The practice frames this model as a deliberate alternative to urgent care centers and emergency rooms for patients whose condition warrants an orthopaedic evaluation rather than general emergency triage — a distinction that, per the practice, reduces cost and delays for that patient population.

No specific street address is named in the practice's announcement beyond "Palm Beach area." With the ADAPTIX Ortho350 installation and expanded appointment access, Freedom Orthopaedics is presenting two differentiators to prospective patients: a specialist-only evaluation model and the in-office imaging infrastructure to back it up.
