Physiatrist: Physiatrists, or physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors, are non-operative specialists of the musculoskeletal system. They can evaluate your mother and make recommendations based on her current level of function and goals ranging from medications, to therapeutic exercise to injections- depending on her individual circumstances.
