physiatrists
Physiatrists, also known as rehabilitation physicians, specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the body's movement and function. They focus on improving patients' quality of life through non-surgical methods, often working with individuals recovering from injuries, surgeries, or chronic illnesses. Their expertise includes pain management, physical therapy, and rehabilitation strategies.
These medical professionals often collaborate with a team that may include physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists to create comprehensive treatment plans. Physiatrists aim to restore function and mobility, helping patients regain independence and return to their daily activities.
