Rehabilitative medicine physicians (also called physiatrists) are medical doctors who diagnose and treat patients with physical disabilities using non-surgical methods. These doctors may also lead a team of other medical professionals who carry out the treatment plan the physiatrist develops. Pain management is often an important part of their role.
