Healing From Physical Trauma Car Accident, Stroke, Spinal Cord, Broken Pelvis, Nerve Pain – Ask For A Physiatrist

17 Sep

What Is a Physiatrist? – copied from the link below

One of the best, albeit unintentionally kept secrets of medicine is the specialty of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R, also known as physiatry) and its doctors called physiatrists (fiz.ee.at.’ trists).

These are physicians (MD’s or DO’s) who are trained experts in bones, joints, muscles, nerves and the brain, with a strong emphasis on how all of those work together to create function. For rehabilitation (rehab) physicians, the primary focus is restoring, maintaining, and optimizing function. That accounts for the breadth of patients physiatrists treat, including those with: sports injuries (professional and recreational athletes), spinal cord injuries (e.g. Christopher Reeves), brain injuries (such as reporter Bob Woodruff), neurological diseases (e.g. Michael J Fox), carpal tunnel syndrome, strokes, burns, amputations, arthritis, etc. The common denominator among all of these is loss of function.

Did you know the Physiatrist is a well-kept secret?

Not anymore, share this information with your loved ones.  Here is the link explaining the role of this doctor.  

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

      Hi Regina,

      The warm weather is helping and no rain for almost two months. I am not looking forward to cold, wind and rain. Take care!

        Enjoy the warm weather. I heard it snowed today somewhere in Colorado. Kind of early, right?
