How PM&R Doctors Facilitate Recovery and Improve Quality of Life

Having a doctor who you can talk to, who knows you, who isn't in a rush to move on to the next patient, who is part of the treatment, not just treating a condition. Dr. Antoine Geffrard at RMS Consultations offers rehabilitation services in Southfield, MI.

Part of having a good recovery and an improved quality of life is having the right kind of medical care. You need to have all the information you need to make an educated decision. Too often, when you are in the recovery process, you have more than one doctor participating in your care. If you are in the hospital for surgery or for a serious illness, you may come out with prescriptions that have been provided by the hospitalists. These days, your primary care physician is not going to be doing hospital visits and even your own specialists may not do hospital visits.

Medication Management

If you are already taking prescription medication, you may have new ones added while you are being treated in the hospital. When you leave the hospital, then what? Do you continue to take these medications? How do they mix with what you are already taking? It is very confusing, and you are likely not feeling at your sharpest. You need a PM&R doctor who will coordinate all of your medication and actually sit with you to discuss what to take, when to take it, and for how long. 

Getting Back To Normal

When you get out of the hospital, especially if you have been in bed for a while or are recovering from something like a stroke, rehabilitation needs to be part of your recovery. Someone needs to help you to coordinate your treatments, your rehab, physical therapy, and occupational therapy, help that you may need to get back to a normal life. This is where your rehabilitation team in Southfield, MI comes in. They will give you the time that you need during a visit to discuss where you are in your recovery process and where the gaps are. We are here to help get the gaps filled and allow you to live your best life no matter what stage you are at.
