Workers' Compensation Care

At Greater Chesapeake Hand to Shoulder, our Maryland offices are fully equipped to evaluate and treat work-related injuries to the shoulder, arm, wrist, elbow, and hand injuries that occur on the job.

Our team of board-certified orthopedic and hand surgeons, along with plastic surgeons, specialize in both surgical and nonsurgical treatments for upper extremity injuries.

We understand the Maryland workers' compensation system and work closely with case workers, physicians, attorneys, insurance companies, and employers to help injured workers return to their jobs as quickly as possible.

Our workers’ compensation services include:

• Maximal Medical Improvement (MMI):
  Our experienced surgeons assess when a worker’s condition has stabilized and further recovery is unlikely. MMI helps determine impairment ratings and affects settlement benefits.
• Independent Medical Examination (IME):
  We offer reliable, timely IMEs to help injured workers return to work. Our board-certified, fellowship-trained specialists provide quick scheduling and detailed reports.
• Expert Witness Services:
  Our highly regarded surgeons are experts in shoulder, arm, wrist, elbow, and hand injuries, and can provide expert witness testimony for workers' compensation cases.

For a fast appointment or to discuss a workers’ compensation referral, call us at (410) 296-6232 or request an appointment online at one of our Maryland locations.
