All our patients are treated using defined protocols. The results have been excellent. The national average of lost days before a patient is returned to work is 57 days. Initial office visits include a comprehensive history and physical examination. Conservative treatment includes utilizing oral non narcotic medications and physical therapy as needed.
Appropriate testing is performed as dictated by the particular injury.
A systematic algorithm is followed with the end result being functional restoration and return to work. In some cases, an impairment rating is obtained to expedite the process. The work environment is examined, and the patient is returned to an appropriately modified job. The total treatment time varies, but emphasis is on conservative progressive care.
