Experience counts!
-
We are very proud of our more than 22 years of experience and success, especially in musculo-skeletal injury cases involving on-the-job injuries, sports injuries, and auto accidents. We are particularly cognizant of the needs of the employer, the employee, and the insurer in treating on the job injuries, which are subject to workers' compensation coverage.
- We realize the enormous importance of distinguishing between (and the apportionment of ) pre-existing conditions, prior injuries, pathology, and underlying genetic conditions upon which workplace trauma and stress are often superimposed.
- We know how important it is to keep injured employees on the job if at all possible, and to take all measures needed to get workers back on the job as quickly as possible.
- We understand workers' compensation coverage is limited to returning workers to pre-injury status or as near so as possible. We also know the importance of using aggressive as well as conservative treatment as the means of reaching our treatment goals in the shortest amount of time and at the least possible cost.
| | For this reason, we monitor our patients carefully and consistently. We do this to make certain they are responding to treatment at all times, and we discontinue treatment when ever the patient is not making an adequate response.Following the above guidelines and procedures allows us to give employers and employees "the most bang for their buck." In other words, to get the best results in the least amount of time, and at the lowest cost. |
Balancing the employer's interest, the employee's interest, and the insurer's interest is not a difficult task for us. That's because we know, without question, what's best for the patient is always in the best interest of the employer, and the insurer- both in the long run and the short run. What is not best for either party is to waste valuable time and resources on unproductive methods or procedures or spending huge sums of money on high-tech examinations, which do not lead to treatment procedures and methods, which benefit and improve the patient's condition.

Diagnostic exams, which do not affect treatment or results, may be enlightening but not effective and therefore wasteful. For this reason, we prefer to take cost-effective courses of testing and treatment, as opposed to the most expensive methods. One of the most cost-effective, diagnostic procedures is called a "trial of therapy." In many cases, a few trial treatments not only bring about a conclusive diagnosis but also a profound change in the patient's status. Only by reducing time and expense can we enhance our reputation and produce the quality of care, and obtain the level of referrals and satisfaction we require.
We would like an opportunity to demonstrate our ability to produce superior health care at reasonable rates.
