Asked Questions

What is Psychiatry, and how does it differ from other medical specialties?

Physiatry, also known as physical medicine and rehabilitation, is a medical specialty that focuses on restoring and enhancing functional ability and quality of life for individuals with physical impairments or disabilities. Physiatrists are experts in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal disorders, neurological disorders, and chronic pain. Unlike other medical specialties that may primarily focus on specific organs or systems, physiatry takes a holistic approach, considering the whole person and employing a variety of non-surgical interventions to optimize function and promote recovery.

What can I expect during a session with a clinical psychologist?

During a session, you can expect a safe and confidential environment where you can discuss your concerns. The psychologist will actively listen, provide guidance, and use evidence-based techniques to help you gain insight, develop coping strategies, and work towards your therapeutic goals.

Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?

In many cases, a referral is not necessary to see a physiotherapist. You can directly book an appointment with a physiotherapist, although some insurance plans or healthcare systems may require a referral for coverage. Please check with your insurance provider or healthcare network for specific requirements.

Can a nutritionist help with weight management?

When should I schedule my first gynecological visit?
