Physiatrists emphasize prevention, diagnosis and treatment of patients who experience limitations in function resulting from any disease process, injury or symptom. The Physiatry Clinic focuses on multidisciplinary, non-invasive pain management treatment. The goal is to restore optimal medical, social, emotional and vocational function.
Physiatry services may include:
- Medical assessment
- Medical guidance in goal setting and treatment
- Orthotic (splint) recommendations
- Spasticity management
- Botox injections
- Baclofen pump adjustments
- Pain management
Physiatrists coordinate the child’s care by working with the family and other physicians. The physiatrists may recommend that other specialists (e.g., orthotist, therapist, equipment vendor) participate in the clinic visit to provide the most comprehensive assessment and plan.
