Physiatrist Jobs in Smithtown, NY

A Physiatrist, also known as a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) physician, focuses on the nonsurgical management of nerve, muscle, and bone diseases that affect movement, function, and quality of life. They specialize in diagnosing, treating, and directing a comprehensive rehabilitation plan for patients with conditions ranging from acute sports injuries to chronic conditions like arthritis or neurological disorders. They collaborate with a team of healthcare professionals to provide a patient-centered approach to improve their patients' ability to function in their everyday lives.

Physiatrists must have a Medical Degree (MD) or a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degree, followed by a residency in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.

Essential skills for a Physiatrist include excellent diagnostic abilities, effective communication, and a strong understanding of the physical and psychological challenges faced by individuals with disabilities or impairments. Prior to becoming a Physiatrist, a professional may have served roles such as a Medical Intern, Medical Resident, or a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Fellow.
