General Practitioners

Arthritis
A systemic disease that affects the entire body. It is characterized by the inflammation of membrane lining the joints, which causes pain, warmth, redness, and swelling. The chronic inflammation causes deterioration of the joint, pain, and limited movement.
Fibromyalgia
The doctors at APM&R are experts at diagnosing and treating pain, whether it is the temporary kind caused from injury or chronic pain caused from arthritis, fibromyalgia or an unknown cause. Physical medicine doctors make it their goal to decrease pain when treating any condition or helping patients recover from injury. Sometimes, however, pain becomes a primary, rather than secondary, issue that your doctor needs to address. While there are multiple treatments for pain, APM&R physicians always consider the whole person rather than focusing only on the painful area and offer non-surgical options for pain relief.
Plantar Fasciitis
Stroke Rehabilitation
Each year in the United States, approximately 730,000 people are affected by strokes, and that number is expected to surpass the 1 million mark by 2050. Today, the amount of stroke rehabilitation a patient receives can be severely limited by health plan restrictions, yet doctors and other medical professionals agree that a comprehensive rehabilitative therapy program provides the best chance for the recovery.
Rheumatology
Has is one of Southeast Michigan’s largest physician’s groups. Sub-specialty groups include Rheumatology, Geriatrics, and Pediatrics, and onsite services include a full service lab, radiology, and bone densitometry.
Pediatric Care
To become a rehabilitation physician, individuals must graduate from medical school followed by four additional years of postdoctoral training in a physical medicine and rehabilitation residency. This includes one year developing fundamental clinical skills and three additional years of training in the full scope of the specialty. There are currently 80 accredited residency programs in physical medicine and rehabilitation in the United States. Many rehabilitation physicians choose to pursue additional advanced degrees (MS, PhD) or complete fellowship training in a specific area of the specialty. Fellowships are available for specialized study in such areas as musculoskeletal rehabilitation, pediatrics, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and sports medicine.
Primary Care
“Most of the care for acute and long-term spinal cord injuries is provided by specialists in PM&R,” explains David Chen, MD, a PM&R physician and director of the spinal cord injury program at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago. “Often we become an injured patient’s primary care physician, because we are more familiar with the unique nuances and secondary issues of the condition.”
Emergency Care
Patients requiring medical attention after hours should contact the office by calling (734) 712-0050 for recorded instructions. In the event of any emergency or serious medical problems after hours, it is recommended that patients call 911 or go to the emergency room.

Pelvic Pain

Internal Medicine
To become board certified in physical medicine and rehabilitation, rehabilitation physicians are required to take both a written and oral examination administered by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (ABPMR). The ABPMR also has agreements with each of the boards of pediatrics, internal medicine, and neurology to allow special training programs leading to certification in both specialties. To find out why it is important to see a physician who is board certified, click here.

Neurology
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Diagnosis of fibromyalgia often involves ruling out other illnesses. Treatment is primarily exercise and may include some kind of medication. From low back pain and herniated discs to carpal tunnel syndrome and tendinitis, APM&R doctors seek to not only reduce and eliminate chronic pain, but also to prevent its recurrence.
Multiple Sclerosis
The non-surgical treatment and rehabilitation of patients suffering from brain injury and neurological problems is a primary treatment area for physical medicine doctors. Brain injury and illness encompass a wide spectrum of dysfunction, from sports-related concussion and traumatic brain injury caused by an automobile accident, to stroke and diseases like multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy.

Depression
Mental Health
Protected health information (PHI), about you, is maintained as a written and/or electronic record of your contacts or visits for healthcare services with our practice. Specifically, PHI is information about you, including demographic information (i.e., name, address, phone, etc.), that may identify you and relates to your past, present or future physical or mental health condition and related healthcare services.

Ultrasound
In recent years, the range of available treatments under PM&R at SJMHS has expanded to include prolotherapy, ultrasound guidance, medical acupuncture, viscosupplementation, botulinum toxin therapy and intrathecal baclofen therapy. This article will outline the highlights of these treatments, which have significantly enhanced our ability to promote healing and improved function in our patients.
Radiology
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Because the symptoms of a concussion may be mild, many cases go unreported. More alarming is the fact that they may be ignored by the injured person or clinicians not familiar with the treatment of this special patient population. The fact that some people with TBI can still rate in the “normal” ranges of a neurological exam, CT scans, and other measurements complicates the diagnosis.

Sciatica
Neurosurgery
For patients with severe muscle spasticity involving multiple muscle groups, ITB therapy is an established treatment approved by the FDA in 1982. Baclofen is a GABA agonist which works at the spinal cord level. The intrathecal route of delivery avoids the sedation and generalized weakness which can be experienced by patients taking oral baclofen. The first step is a one-day ITB trial, consisting of a lumbar puncture and administration of an intrathecal bolus of baclofen, followed by several hours of serial examinations and monitoring. If the trial is successful, the patient is scheduled for ITB pump implantation by Neurosurgery, after which the pump is managed, adjusted and periodically refilled by the PM&R team.
Vascular Surgery
Approximately 90% of limb amputations are caused by impaired circulation, as a result of diabetes mellitus or other vascular conditions. Orthopedic trauma, such as from motorcycle accidents, is another common cause. Bone cancer and congenital limb deficiencies are occasionally seen, but are relatively rare conditions. Often, we will have seen the patient initially for inpatient consultation on the Vascular Surgery or Orthopedic services in the hospital. Some of these patients are then admitted to the Rehabilitation Unit at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital for a course of inpatient rehabilitation.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Associates in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation physicians treat a variety of common conditions ranging from neck and back pain to sports injuries to amputation and traumatic brain injury. As rehabilitation specialists, we offer non-surgical treatments for conditions such as...
Physical Therapy
“We’re very selective about where we send our patients, and the APM&R physicians we refer to are absolutely the best in all of Lower Michigan. Not only are they excellent doctors who perform treatments that no one else in the area does, they are kind, amazing people as well. One of my physical therapy patients was in a lot of pain, and his APM&R doctor made a special effort to fit him in to his busy schedule. These are doctors who press on to find more ways to help their patients, and I tell my patients that we are incredibly lucky to have them so close by. These are doctors who truly care. ”
Occupational Therapy
Physical and occupational therapies are designed to help people with arthritis make their lives easier. Physical therapy treatment includes muscle strengthening and range-of-motion exercises. It also teaches ways to control pain without medication. Occupational therapy focuses on obtaining maximum independence and minimizing reoccurrence through education and treatment techniques.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow, rotator cuff injury, heel injuries, lower back problems and frequent knee pain because of the many sports based on running—all of these injuries impact the careers of professional athletes and cause discomfort for “weekend warriors” as well.
