Sacramento (QME): Spine

Qualified Medical Evaluators for the Spine are often consulted to evaluate seriously injured workers in Sacramento workers’ compensation cases. If you’ve had a spine injury and received a panel list of Spine physicians, you likely have an essential decision to make. Choosing a Sacramento area Spine doctor to perform a medical evaluation for you is an important decision you shouldn’t take lightly. Choose a QME carefully because their reports can seriously impact your case.

SpineWhile the clinical expertise of a Spine physician is narrow, they are one of the most complex disciplines. Their knowledge encompasses restoration and preservation of the spine through managing disorders of the spine. Management is through both complex surgeries and non-operative procedures.

Spine injuries tend to be severe. Please take your time and care for yourself in selecting a Qualified Medical Examiner (QME). Don’t be tempted to choose a QME based on their name, hospital affiliation, address, or medical group. Seriously consider spending the extra effort to select one based on whether they are likely to write a fair and unbiased report about your injuries.

Yelp, Google, and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) are great review sites and will offer many worthwhile opinions. However, the people who contribute to these resources usually focus on how the doctor interacts with patients or the office staff’s customer service. While these are important, receiving a fair and unbiased report from a Qualified Medical Evaluator is the most critical factor. In addition to the reviews sites, the American Board of Spine Surgery website is a great place to further your research on doctors who focus on the spine. We’ve also created the following list to assist you in making your decision.

Because opinions and votes are at risk of being tarnished by manipulation and ballot stuffing, the final decision should be based on a combination of what you read here, review sites, votes, other websites, and your decision-making process. If you have questions about your workers’ compensation case, please get in touch with one of the workers’ compensation attorneys at Eason & Tambornini, ALC.
