Workers' Comp |
|
Workers’ compensation
and spinal injuries often go hand in hand.
This is due to the high number of neck and back
injuries caused by unsafe lifting, falling objects,
and workplace hazards.
We know you want to get
back on your feet and back to work. We also
understand that the process of filing workers’ comp
claims and documenting treatment can be stressful
and overwhelming. We’ve made it a priority to
assist workers’ compensation patients every step of
of the way.
