1. Our commitment
Texas Orthobiologics wants this website to be usable by everyone who comes to it, including people who use screen readers, navigate by keyboard, magnify the screen, or need different colour and contrast settings to read comfortably.
Many of the people who visit this site are in pain, are managing an injury, or are researching a decision on behalf of someone else. Making the information here easy to reach is part of the practice's job, not an add-on to it.
2. Accessibility tools on this website
Every page of this website carries an accessibility panel, opened by the accessibility button on the page. It provides:
- Increase font size, decrease font size, and reset to the default size.
- Contrast mode, for stronger separation between text and background.
- Grey mode, which removes colour.
- Light mode, which returns the page to its standard appearance.
Your choice is remembered as you move from page to page. It is stored on your own device and is not transmitted to the practice or to anyone else. Clearing your browser's stored site data will reset it.
3. What we have done
This website was rebuilt during 2026 and moved onto the practice's own hosting. Accessibility work carried out as part of that rebuild includes:
- Text that can be resized by the browser as well as by the panel described above, without content being lost or overlapping.
- A skip link to the main content, so keyboard users are not made to tab through the navigation on every page.
- Headings used in a real order, so screen reader users can move through a page by structure rather than reading it end to end.
- Descriptive link text in place of bare "click here" links, so a list of links read out of context still makes sense.
- Videos hosted on YouTube in privacy-enhanced mode, with the player's own keyboard controls and caption settings available.
- Forms with visible labels, and error messages written in words rather than colour alone.
4. Conformance status
The practice works toward the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, which is the standard most commonly applied to websites in the United States.
This website has not been through a formal third-party accessibility audit, and the practice does not claim full conformance. Parts of the site meet Level AA and parts of it have not been tested. Saying so plainly is more useful to you than a claim the practice cannot stand behind, and it is the reason the next section exists.
5. Known limitations
The practice is aware of the following and is working through them:
- Older articles. Several hundred blog posts were carried over from the previous website. Some contain images whose alternative text is missing or unhelpful, and some use headings inconsistently.
- Video captions. Patient stories and lecture recordings rely on YouTube's captions. Automatic captions are not always accurate, particularly with clinical terms, and not every video has a reviewed caption track.
- PDFs. Some documents offered for download were produced outside this website and may not be tagged for screen readers.
- Complex images. Anatomical diagrams and imaging figures may not yet have a full text description of what they show.
If one of these is standing between you and something you need, please contact the practice and it will be provided another way.
6. Content provided by others
Some parts of this website are supplied by third parties, including video hosted by YouTube, appointment and financing links operated by outside companies, and reviews displayed from Google. The practice does not control how those services are built and cannot guarantee their accessibility.
Where a third-party feature is a barrier, the practice will provide the same information or complete the same task for you directly.
7. Telling us about a problem
If you have difficulty using any part of this website, please tell the practice. A specific report is genuinely useful: the page address, what you were trying to do, and what happened instead. If you use assistive technology, naming it and its version helps.
The practice aims to respond within five business days, and to tell you what it can fix, when, and how it will get you the information in the meantime.
8. Getting information another way
Anything on this website can be provided another way. Call the practice and ask, and staff will read information to you over the telephone, send it by post, or go through it with you at your appointment. You do not need to explain why.
Appointments can be made entirely by telephone. Nothing on this website has to be used to become a patient.
