Delaware's Top Injury Specialists

I hurt my back at work, and I was told that I had to go to P.T., which I did. At P.T., I was given exercises to do, but they only seemed to make me worse. I was told that I had strained my back, and I needed to go back to work right away. When I went back to work, my pain started to go into my legs, and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I was told about Dr. Feeney and made an appointment at Physician’s Plus. After an evaluation, I was told that I was having weakness in my legs and sent for an MRI of my lower back, which showed 3 herniated discs (2 of which were determined to be from my injury).  I did see a spine surgeon, who told me to stick with Dr. Feeney and come back in 6 weeks if I wasn’t better. My treatment plan at Physician’s Plus was really great. I had a special type of lumbar traction called axial decompression as well as a certain type of high-powered laser, which quickly stopped my leg pain. I was also put on a great therapy program, in which the therapist worked with me one on one. I was told that it was extremely important to get my back stronger. My employer even commented that he liked the communication with Physician’s Plus and I’m sure they were happy that I didn’t need surgery. Thankfully, I am back to work today and doing well.
