Work Injuries

What is a work injury?

Work injuries represent a broad spectrum of disorders including both acute injuries (fractures, lacerations), and chronic conditions (carpal tunnel, tendonitis). If you feel you’ve been injured at work, contact your HR supervisor as you may qualify for treatment of your injury under Workman’s Compensation Insurance. We offer treatment for many hand and wrist work injuries, and also Medico-legal Consulting Services and Independent Medical Examinations.
