Working along our other health practitioners, our medical physicians are specialists in the field of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, also known as a physiatry. They are experts in painful conditions from accidents, work injuries, and has extensive training in rehab from sports injuries and in improving quality of life through the diagnosis and management of painful conditions.
Physiatrists look at the big picture
The goal of a physiatrist is to restore physical function in patients with bone, muscle, or nerve injuries or diseases - everything from strokes and brain injuries to low back pain and knee stiffness. Physiatrists differ from other specialists because they focus on the entire body rather than just one organ, such as the heart. This head-to-toe approach can be particularly helpful for hard-to-diagnose problems like pain, which may be caused by anything from muscle strain to osteoarthritis. They often notice things that are usually overlooked.
Physiatrists offer non-surgical treatments
Physiatrists also emphasize non-surgical treatments, ranging from pain medications, steroid injections, strengthening exercises, stretching, and physical modalities. Just because you are told you have a herniated disc or arthritis in your knee doesn't mean you need surgery. Most patients with physical limitations can be treated with conservative approaches that have a lower risk for complications. And if you do need surgery, working with a physiatrist before and after can help speed your recovery.
Physiatrists offer highly personalized treatments
Whether arthritis keeps you from gardening or a knee injury has sidelined your daughter from the lacrosse team, a physiatrist creates a custom treatment plan to help you enjoy your favorite activities again. They restore physical function as it relates to each individual, whether that means going back to work, playing golf or getting out with the grandkids.
