Shelton's Bridgeport Avenue corridor is dense with offices, warehouses and distribution operations, and that shapes the injuries we see from Shelton residents. Lifting injuries. Repetitive strain. The back that finally gave out on a Tuesday after twelve years of the same motion. And, because the same corridor is a commuter artery, the collisions that come with it.
If you were hurt at work
Dr. Hochman has experience treating work-related injuries, and the documentation side of a workers' comp case is not an afterthought here. Notes are taken at every visit recording your complaints, the treatment provided and your recovery. She provides impairment ratings, and refers for open MRI or specialist consultation when the case requires it.
Repetitive strain isn't "just soreness"
Carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, myofascial pain, bursitis and shoulder blade pain all show up in people who do the same thing all day. They're on our treated-conditions list because they're common, treatable, and frequently ignored until they aren't manageable anymore.
