Physicians trained in occupational medicine diagnose and treat work-related injuries much more effectively than most primary care physicians. When injuries do occur, they need to be managed well to return the injured worker to a state of health and productivity as soon as possible. A skilled occupational medicine specialist will work with the worker, employer, workers compensation insurer, and the medical system to help the injured worker regain his or her functional abilities and return to work.
