Serious car accidents often result in one or several victims being rushed to the emergency room (ER). There are generally two doctors found in an emergency room: an Emergency Room physician, and a trauma surgeon. An ER doctor will normally see patients first, and they will work to stabilize your condition and determine what procedures must be immediately implemented. Trauma surgeons quickly aid those suffering from catastrophic injuries that risk their limbs or life.
Physicians in ERs might do the following while treating you after a car crash:
An ER doctor or trauma surgeon can save your life in the minutes after you arrive in their care. While they may be conducting surgeries at this early stage, it’s possible that you will need more operations after your condition stabilizes. There are almost countless reasons why your doctors may recommend surgery in the days, months, or even years after an accident. You may have organ damage that must be addressed, or perhaps you need work on your limbs to help you regain your mobility. Internal operations can be conducted by a general surgeon or a specialist. For example, an orthopedic surgeon may be needed to help correct harm done to your joints after a car wreck.
All doctors, including surgeons, must take due care to prevent you from unnecessary harm while you are under their care. Therefore, you will likely see numerous different types of doctors before, during, and after your surgery. For example, a radiologist will read x-rays, CAT scans, and other imaging studies of your injuries. This will allow for your physical damage to be properly identified before surgery. An anesthesiologist, on the other hand, will be present for your actual surgery. Their job is to make sure that anesthesia is properly administered, so that your procedure goes smoothly.
Medical care after an emergent car accident is focused on saving your life and stabilizing your condition. This means that doctors will work to seek a full physical recovery, or to limit any permanent handicaps that you may have. However, you may still need to see other medical specialists.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a very serious condition that many accident survivors face. PTSD can make routine tasks difficult or even impossible. Therapy can help you to cope with your stress after an accident. Many survivors find a professional therapist’s guidance to be essential to their recovery.
Car accidents often leave victims with scars and physical deformities. These constant reminders of your accident can make life difficult. Fortunately, you have the right to seek compensation that can address these issues. A plastic surgeon can work to return your appearance to how it was before the car accident. Some common cosmetic operations that we have seen for car accident victims include:
Damage to your body and physical appearance that you or a loved one sustain can be debilitating after a car accident. It’s important to seek the best medical care possible if you are to make a proper recovery. If you find yourself in this situation, you likely have many questions, including, “what doctors must I see,” and “how am I going to pay for my medical bills?” Your car accident lawyer must understand how to work with all of your doctors while seeking to recover financial damages from the party responsible for your accident. At Studinski Law, LLC, we are familiar with the types of doctors you may see after a car accident, and we have worked with many Wisconsin families who have been in similar situations.
