A Team Approach To Healing Providence Physical Medicine Center brings together a team of highly skilled medical professionals to manage every aspect of your care, which helps to optimize recovery and minimize time away from work and your family. When you arrive at the Providence Physical Medicine Center, you will be seen by a Registered Nurse and then a staff physician who will coordinate your care. You will be given a comprehensive treatment plan that includes a wide range of diagnostic tests to accurately discover the source of your pain. We will also recommend the most appropriate treatment options, ranging from medication to physical therapy to pain management therapy. Should your particular back or neck problem require a surgical solution, you will be referred to an orthopaedic surgeon or a neurosurgeon. No Physician Referral Needed While we are happy to work with your family physician or specialist in managing your care, you do not need to be referred by a physician to visit Providence Physical Medicine Center. Please note that even though you do not need a referral by a physician to be seen, your insurance provider may require a referral from your primary care physician to cover your visit.
