The pain and trauma that auto accident victims are often subjected to are harrowing and can also bring devastating injuries. Even the most minor collision can cause severe injuries down the road after the shock has worn off. After a vehicle collision, you should consult with our physiatrists at MedEx Injury Doctors. Our team will assess your injuries and collaborate closely with our other physicians to provide the proper care for your trauma.
What is a Physiatrist?
At MedEx Injury Doctors, our collective of healthcare professionals provides a variety of services to those injured in a severe car or workers’ compensation accident. Our physiatrists specifically deal with traumatic injuries related to car or workplace accidents. When you meet with our physiatrist, they will diagnose your injuries and help manage your rehabilitation process. Depending on the severity of your injuries, a physiatrist may prescribe medications—primarily focusing on the muscles so that they can start the healing process. Our experts will implement their unique treatments to help with pain management and work with our other providers to implement manual manipulations and exercises to further support the healing process.
