TRAINING OF PERSONAL INJURY DOCTORS
There are many different types of doctors who treat injuries from falls, and other trauma causing incidents. You may have fractured your ankle and need to see an Orthopedic Surgeon, or you could have herniated disc pain and need to see a Neurologist or you may need to see a Psychiatrist for mental health. Regardless of the type of doctor, you need to see, however, the training of each all began in much the same way.
Kind Of Training Required of Accident Doctors
The medical training of doctors is extensive. Doctors must first graduate from an accredited medical school as the initial step to practicing medicine in the United States. After four years of medical school, graduates usually perform a 5-year residency program. A residency is a training program for medical school graduates, usually in a hospital setting. This training allows the doctor to learn, and focus on, a specific area of medicine. For example, your doctor may have completed a residency in Orthopedics or Neurology. During residency, a senior doctor usually called an attending doctor, supervises the resident to ensure that patients are safely and effectively managed. You can find the best trained & experienced personal injury & main management specialists on this website.
Some residents are offered the opportunity to do a Fellowship, after the residency program. A Fellowship is usually a one-year program focused on a very specific area of medicine. For example, a physician could do a Fellowship in Neurosurgery, after residency. This additional training allows the physician to study and learn more about a very specific area of medicine.
What Is Board Certification For Doctors?
Your doctor may also be Board Certified in a specific area of medicine. Not every doctor is Board Certified. Board certification demonstrates a doctor’s additional and continued training and study in a specialized field of medicine. Most fields of medicine do have Board Certification available. For example, a Pain Management doctor can become Board Certified by the American Board of Pain Medicine. Continued medical education and testing are required to maintain Board Certification status. We are proud to have a list of the best personal injury doctors near you who have board certification.
