A Message From Dr. Lisa Charbonneau, Chief Medical Officer
When I tell people what I do for a living, there is usually a moment of hesitation before I start explaining myself. I am a physiatrist, a physician who specializes in physical medicine and rehabilitation.
I was drawn to the holistic approach of patient care that is the basis of physiatry; not just treating patients for a few days and then not knowing their long-term outcomes. I always followed my patients to the rehab unit to see how they were recovering and regaining function after a catastrophic illness or injury.
I am fortunate in that I chose a field of medicine that has provided me with many opportunities. At the end of the day, I feel good about what I do with my time, whether you call it “fizz-eye-a-tree,” “fizzy-a-tree,” or “rehabilitation medicine.” It is predicted that as the population ages, the demand for doctors in my field of medicine will increase. There is still hope that one day people will not confuse me with a podiatrist or psychiatrist, but will understand that what I do for a living is help the living do all they can for themselves.
