How can we help injured workers?

How can we help injured workers?

Millions of people are injured each year in auto accidents. A motor vehicle crash can generate enormous amounts of force, and this force is almost always transmitted into the body of the vehicle’s occupants.

Our physicians’ diagnostic tools are the same as those used by other doctors, with the addition of special techniques in electro diagnostic medicine, like electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies. These techniques help our providers to diagnose conditions that cause pain, weakness, and numbness.

Frequently Asked Questions about Pain Management

You should plan to spend approximately TWO HOURS in our office for your initial consultation. When you arrive, check in with our receptionist. The receptionist will assist you in completing the new patient paperwork and take your photo for our confidential electronic records.

Some additional brief forms you will be asked to fill out are:

  • Registration information – name, address, contact numbers, insurance coverage
  • Medication agreement – necessary if you are, or might be, prescribed narcotics
  • Medical records release to obtain records from other providers

You will then be escorted to an examination room where the medical assistant will take your vital signs, collect a preliminary urine specimen (if you already take, or may be prescribed, a narcotic medication), and input some basic information on the computer record, such as your primary complaint, any medical problems that may be related to your pain or future treatment, and a review of your overall health.
