WORKERS’ COMPENSATON INJURIES

Highlands Neuro Worker's Compensation MeetingHighlands Neurosurgery has extensive experience in the management of workers’ compensation injuries. We commonly treat work related injuries from a large geographic region including Virginia and Tennessee as well as other bordering states. We treat surgical and nonsurgical injuries, including injuries to the head and peripheral nervous system, lumbar, thoracic and cervical spine as well as injuries to the spinal cord itself. Our philosophy is simple: To provide timely evaluation and quality care with the goal of returning the patient to their pre-injured state, for work and other normal activities, as soon as possible. In addition to our role as treating physicians, we perform Independent Medical Evaluations, Impairment Ratings and Medical Record Reviews. Ms. Julie Goff, our dedicated and experienced work comp coordinator, is available to assist with all of your work comp referrals and information requests.
