Work Spine Injury & Workers’ Comp

Each year many American workers suffer a spine-related injury on the job. We understand that a work-related spine injury can affect not only the injured worker, but his or her family as well as their employer.
It is very important that effective and prompt treatment begin as soon as possible to prevent further damage, and get these injured workers back to normal. Therefore, Dr. Spine has a dedicated team and the latest available spine treatments to get the injured worker back to their daily routine as quickly as possible.
Prompt Appointments & Prompt Paperwork
The injured worker can be seen within 24 hours after requesting an appointment. Dr. Spine and his team are dedicated to ensuring that care providers, insurance companies, nurse case managers, and employers are quickly informed of the status of injured workers and treatment plans.
All necessary paperwork such as work status, IMEs, and treatment recommendations are completed the day of the visit so as to not delay treatment.

Dedicated & Specialized Care
Dr. Spine has a proven track record of successfully treating injured workers for over 20 years, and is committed to delivering the most advanced state-of-the-art spine care. Most work injuries can be treated with non-surgical treatment once the proper diagnosis is made. For those patients who fail non-surgical treatment, Dr. Spine employs the latest surgical techniques such as outpatient surgery and minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS) to ensure quick recovery and return to normal life as soon as possible.
