OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine is not just your basic ho-hum orthopedic center. Dr. Cole and Dr. Kola are Physiatrist's (Not a Orthopedic surgeon) with a background, beliefs and practice in Osteopathic medicine. Physiatrists are specialists in physical medicine and rehabilitation. “A Physiatrist will concentrate on finding the source of your pain or limitation and will recommend one or more conservative and noninvasive treatments.” Read a bit more by clicking here now. I love the fact that their approach is great for people that don’t believe that surgery is always the end answer.
Another special bonus with OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine is that they believe in regenerative medicine when applicable. And the fact that Dr. Cole is Dual board certified in regenerative medicine and interventional PM&R makes his services even more appealing to me. I’m not sure if there are 10 Dual board certified in the regenerative medicine industry in all of the United States. You can read Dr. Cole Top Doc Magazine article by clicking here now.
A Physiatrist’s treatment plan is very specific to each patient. Depending on the root of the problem, a physiatrist may focus on:
Neck & Back Pain
Strokes
Traumatic Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries
Sports Injuries
Arthritis
Herniated & Pinched Discs
Fibromyalgia
Sciatica
Phantom Limb Pain (Amputees)
