Physiatry Treatments
Physiatrists at Washington Township Medical Foundation
Physiatrists, who are also called doctors of physical medicine and rehabilitation
(PM&R), use specialized treatment plans focused on function and mobility,
as well as enhanced quality of life. Patients at Washington Township Medical
Foundation can expect treatment plans tailored to their needs and preferences.
A physiatrist may lead a diverse team of medical professionals in providing
you care, including occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech
/ language pathologists, athletic trainers, and / or social workers. All
of these professionals may work together to provide the highest level
of care for patients.

Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation in Fremont, CA
Our physiatry team is pleased to serve patients throughout the Silicon
Valley, the Bay Area, Oakland, and surrounding communities from our advanced
facility conveniently located in Fremont. We work with our patients to
help them manage symptoms, utilize assistive tools and devices, and reduce
pain while improving quality of life for those with moderate to severe
disabilities caused by a broad spectrum of conditions. Physiatrists focus
their treatment plans on treating the whole patient—social, physical,
psychological—rather than providing isolated care to the immediate
problem area that presents itself.
How Will My Physiatrist Approach My Treatment?
Conditions treated by physiatrists may include chronic diseases, chronic
pain, and disabilities affecting the musculoskeletal system. This includes
conditions that cause neck pain, low back pain, and more. From diagnosis
to assessment to treatment, physiatrists work closely with their patients
to identify solutions that meet their needs rather than taking a “one
size fits all” approach. For more information about physiatry at
Washington Township Medical Foundation, contact our facility to set up
an appointment. We look forward to pursuing solutions with you.
