"I don't know exactly how to thank Dr. Nieves and his wonderful staff for bringing quality and hope back into my life. I can attest that they do care and they will help you." - EP, Iowa
Workplace injuries are not uncommon. In fact, regardless of what type of work you do, you risk being injured on the job. You can slip or fall or incur a sprain or strain injury. There are also various types of injuries resulting from repetitive movement. The list of potential workplace injuries goes on and on.
If you’ve been injured at work, what matters most is getting relief from pain, recovering from the injury and returning to productivity so that you can continue earning your income and supporting your family. So you need an accurate and complete diagnosis and treatment that is appropriate for your needs and effective at resolving your injury. You also need information and training on how to avoid reinjury or future injuries. And if Workers’ Compensation is involved, you need an experienced team who understands the processes and paperwork and knows how to work efficiently with case managers, attorneys, physical therapists and other caregivers and involved parties.
