The Department of Rehabilitation and Physical Medicine
Physiatrists (specialists in physical medicine) diagnose and treat adults with neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. They provide highly specialized care for people with traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, strokes, joint replacements, amputations and other conditions that result in physical disabilities. They also provide care for individuals with sports or work related injuries.

Physiatrists design individualized rehabilitation programs based on the specific needs of patients in an effort to improve their functional abilities and quality of life. They coordinate and direct a team of rehabilitation professionals, including physical, occupational, speech and recreational therapists, social workers, psychologists, program managers and nursing staff. Care is coordinated with the patient's attending physician and other physician specialists.

The range of care offered by physiatrists includes specialty services such as prosthetic clinic (artificial limbs), orthotics clinic (braces), wheelchair clinic, electrodiagnostic studies (EMG/nerve conduction), nerve and muscle blocks and trigger point injections. For more information or to schedule and appointment, please call the offices directly.
