TSC will perform IME at the request of law office, individual and Insurance companies.

If you are injured on the job, we can help. First, we will first diagnose your problem using the latest techniques and testing. We will then design an active treatment plan which will allow you to quickly and safely return to work.

We work closely with physical therapists who are highly experienced in treating work related injuries. In addition to therapy, we use anti-inflamitory medications, work station analysis, physical conditioning, and back education. If surgery become necessary then we will choose the least harmful way to proceed.
