    Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation

    Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation specialists (sometimes shortened to PM&R or physiatrists) specialize in helping people regain optimal function following illness or injury to the muscles, bones, tissues or nervous system. PM&R specialists treat a wide range of problems including: 

    • Sore muscles
    • Spinal cord injuries
    • Back, neck and nerve pain
    • Arthritis
    • Stroke
    • Sports injuries
    • Work-related injuries

    The goal of the PM&R physician is to decrease pain and improve functionality without surgery. 

    Patients are seen by physician referral only; second-opinion consultations are welcome.
